"Treading somewhat more familiar territory, Allan Moyle is back, after the debacle that was Xchange (why would a science fiction movie with Stephen Baldwin in seem like a good idea?) dealing with bookish fuck-up antiheroes.It wasn't as bad as many, many other movies I've seen, I want to make that clear, but that thing that Allan Moyle used to be able to do so well, the thing where you empathised with the characters to the extent you wished you lived in the movie. (Lets face it, he was the John Hughes of the 90s) The script is pretty well written, but has one too many twists in the overly quirky tale, it's worth noting also that the film just looks incredibly 90s. From grungey editing techiniques, to the actual subject matter. Junkies? Who makes films about junkies anymore?I'm being hard on this movie, and I probably shouldn't be. It's just once upon a while he could do no wrong in my eyes. I guess even teen movie directors have to grow up sometime though. " [More]

"An all around stupidly entertaining little film from the kind people of Canada, Weirdsville is an amalgam of the dark, witty dialogue and pacing of Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang and the not-so-original plotline of "drugs + desperation = bad things" from countless movies (the most recent seen by myself being Smiley Face). Direction and farcically desperate, yet surprisingly effective characters keep this movie from being just another forgettable weekend rental. " [More]
