opening scene with bats and stuff, funny..... rest of movie absolutely dumb.... i kept waiting for some plot to come around, or for something to actually happen.....
That movie is frickin HILARIOUS, Depp and Benderas (sp?) do amazing jobs.
The acting is greta, the screenplay is a damn good adaptation, and I think over all it blows Bill Murray's "Where the Buffalo Roam" way out of the water.
Everyone I've talked to has loved the movie also. It is warped and a bit drug skewed, but that is the book too, and overall it's very well done IMO.
IT'S THE SEARCH FOR THE AMERICAN DREAM! You would probably have to have ingested a fair amount of questionable substances for it to have actually made sense. I connected with it in a way that an sXe person probably never could. Ah well, as it's already been said, read the book, it's even better.

Never saw the movie...Loved the book.
Picture yourself
Set up for good in a whole other life
In the mystery zone

The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, and prejudices to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own for the children and the children yet unborn and the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.
