Viewing Notes
Such a weird, wild movie that I’ve been wanting to revisit for a while. Was glad when MUBI added it. Forgot a few of the actors that are in this. As relevant as this movie is now it still feels like a different time. Dwayne Johnson has really come a long way but you can see a glimpse of the greatness to come; the dude is just hyper charismatic.
Now I want to revisit LA set movies like Under the Silver Lake and others.
