Title: An overrated movie
Product review: Most of the reviews here rate this movie with five stars. It must be the same person reviewing this film because this movie is REALLY bad. First off, there is absolutely NO PLOT whatsoever. Ditto. The characters roam aimlessly around a small Texas town getting stoned and acting like complete fools. Where is the redeeming value here? What lesson are the characters taught? The second problem I had with this movie is its lack of a central character. Instead, we are introduced to several SHALLOW teenagers who never seem to get developed to a point where they become likeable. At one point, I thought the story was about a disillusioned high school football quarterback. But half way through the movie he disappears and we then follow some freshman kid attending his first beer party. Okay. Yeah. The characters are as disjointed as the story. For a good 1970's era coming of age movie I would recommend either 'Detroit Rock City' or 'Over the Edge' which was actually filmed in the late 70's.
