Title: TRUST ME - DO NOT BELIEVE THE HYPE - THIS IS JUNK
Review: Maybe this is how Kurt Cobain spent his "last days" but this does not mean it is a good film. This is just another stylish psuedo-intellectual art-house film. Gus Van Sant is quickly becoming like Stephen Sodenberg. A guy trying to make cool artsy flicks that seem really deep in meaning to the very niave watcher, but, like Sodenberg, anyone who even bothers to tread deep into an analysis of this film is apt to feel cheated and tricked. Gus Van Sant even attempts to lift the whole significance of the grunge-scene but this movie just seems so contrived and silly. Like it is looking for some significance to everything when there is none. Just buy another Nirvana album. Don't even bother.
