Why was this movie written . . . and then made?
2 July 1999
It seems that these last couple of years (particularly since Pulp Fiction), directors and critics seemed to think that any movie that involved the "artsy/independent" effect, as well as sex, adultery (as comedy), some black comedy, swearing, etc. would make a film to be grade A. If anything, that would be the only excuse for the survival and some praise for this movie. Sure this movie had some laughs, I especially enjoyed Jason Patrick's character; but if you really come down to it, it wasn't worth making. America would have done fine without it. I'd suggest to LaBute to read more of Joseph Campbell and put some of his tactics in his writing; because as it is, the movie really doesn't have a valid reason to exist.
