Although this is my favorite genre - that's why the generous rating - it lacked the melancholy of an indie.Its understandable the weirdness, unusual social behavior and even abrupt situations but what is not is the fact you can't tie an end to it, no metaphoric connection at all.
Sean Penn is a brilliant actor and if I wasn't aware of ozzy Osbourne maybe he could have pulled it off.But under all the criticism he did make the character real,lost,uncertain but alas unauthentic.It could have been all a different ball game if it wasn't Ozzy that was impersonated.
Plot was good pick for an indie but needed much explanation all the way.It was easy to be carried away seeing the unusual characters but scenario just seem to be aligning itself with the weirdness of the character made it difficult to buy.I liked the fact how story unfold with so many questions raised in the beginning getting answered in the end keeping curiosity alight.
Overall if you like indie picks,you won't regret this one and will enjoy its wits although you will have to turn the volume up to hear some of them.
