Negative Positive
Title: Pretentious, tedious, dull etc.......
Review: Let me first start by stating that I am huge David Lynch aficionado. I like all of his films ( I will vehemently defend Dune and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me) except for this disappointing effort. I like films that meander and are nonlinear in structure but Lost Highway is just boring and headache inducing. I recommend taking dramamine before being subjected to the sledgehammer aesthetics that Lynch throws at you on the screen. Also does the film have a point? Perhaps, but I was in so much excruciating pain to even care about the characters or try to dechiper the plot. The other friends I watched this with were either asleep or checking their watches for when it would be over. This film is nowhere in the class of Eraserhead, Blue Velvet or Wild At Heart. At least Mr. Lynch redeemed himself with his next effort The Straight Story.
Is the review positive or negative?
