Zeroville

This movie as other reviews here say has no plot and is seemingly off kilter but is also surprisingly entertaining and compels you to watch it because of this. The weird chemistry between Franco, Fox, Farrell and King is awesome and makes for an intriguing watch.

More of a visual love letter to film and filmmaking covering the Cinematic Hollywood era of "Easy Riders and Raging Bulls". This has finally arrived in 2019 just after "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and "Dolemite Is My Name".

Dark look at depression, loneliness, mental illness, living life through the fantasy lens of movies. Strange casting because all these folks usually make comedies together but interesting to see them in different material.

I admit, I thought I could watch Megan Fox read a dictionary because she is so beautiful, well that might have been more exciting than this. James Franco is out of his element with the acting here, trying to play this moody tragic lead doesn't seem real.

Now I realize that only people who read the book will understand that reference but whatever "we'll make it work for us". I read through the book 8 and a half times each time thinking "god I love this book" but it took less then 30 minutes into the film to make me want slam the Roosevelt Hotel bell into my television.

Franco's robotic acting and megan fox is in it, doing what she does best! causing hardons in the middle of the movie but all the surgeries are kindly visible now.

I think it was okay. It's weird, yes, but it's pretty decent, not the best but the elements are still there.

I honestly didn't understand this film at all. A man comes to Hollywood, kind of obsessed by movies, and in particular, "A Place In the Sun" and it's actors, Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor (see the tattoo on his head).

Didn't pull off what it was trying to do, but I still enjoyed it. I'll repeat what a couple others said, Franco should keep trying and Megan Fox needs more roles like this.
