Let's go on an existential druggie trip with Sean Penn - said no one ever. Talented cast. Boggy script that's just a bunch of drug talk. Others have said there's a much deeper meaning - but finding it is neither fun or convincing... so I'm out.

This is about 4 Hollywood friends having drugged up conversations about various topics. I watched the first 20 minutes of this film 18 months ago, and I could not bear it so I switched it off. I decided to give it another chance today. Fortunately, I think this film is not as bad as I thought. This film is full of witty dialogs. Sean Penn's character's jealousy is well portrayed. I also like Kevin Spacey's intellectual and cool image. It is an interesting film, but there are some dull moments. It reminds me of the other Kevin Spacey film "The Big Kahuna", which is also dialog heavy. I think "The Big Kahuna" is better though, as it has a central plot.

I was attracted by the incredible cast - but could only stand to watch the first 30 minutes and regret waiting so long. I cannot find a single positive comment to make about this film. True I wasn't really in the mood for a misogynistic, substance-fuelled, dialogue-driven examination of people I don't know and don't care about - but I usually stick any movie out until the end. I simply couldn't give this film a mark so I had to give it a one. Such a shame, a stellar ensemble cast is a terrible thing to waste.

After viewing this picture, I became a big fan of Sean Penn,(Eddie),"The Interpreter",'05, who showed his great acting abilities in playing a very hard role to portray on the screen. Meg Ryan,(Bonnie),"In The Cut",'03, played the role of a dippy blonde who would do anything for Eddie and I mean anything. Robin Wright Penn,(Darlene),"Nine Lives",'05 had the hots for Eddie and Eddie had a ball making love to her quite often during the film. Well, after all, they are husband and wife. Garry Shandling,(Artie),"Town & Country",'01 make a few brief appearances and tried to add some humor to his role, which was so so. This is a very strange story, but is really down to earth and has a cast of great actors who did a fantastic job of presenting way out people all mixed up and high on DRUGS!

This is not the worst film i have ever seen, but it is certainly the worst film that i have seen that had such a potentially great cast. This filmed play has ugly worthless people leading ugly wasteful lives, as the tedium grows ever more unbearable, the acting becomes ever more mechanical and laborious with stale lifeless direction.The story is one long Hollywood conceit,i hated all the characters so cared not one token for any of them, so the film just died in transit.I only got through the entire 2 hours of tedium by watching the DVD in 20 minute chunks.In A word a car crash bore.
