What can be said that hasn't been said before?? rare that a film has the effect of making you feel that you've been on the piss for the weekend after watching it. Willam Burroughs - repeat - William Burroughs - does this not say it all???

Naked Lunch is a really strange movie. Not surprising, considering that most did not believe that it was possible to transport the book onto the screen. The plot to this one was actually pretty intriguing and I really liked the way that Cronenberg makes the audience question which parts (if any) are reality and which are fantasy. There's a great mix between the two. The score, while quite subtle, was actually pretty affective as well and complimented all of the weird visuals nicely. The negative aspect of this film is the somewhat pedestrian acting performances, which may or may not have been deliberate, but at times was unpleasant. Also, it was very difficult to make sense of. No surprise there. I have a feeling that, if you've read the book then this would be very enjoyable. On the other hand, if you don't like movies that can be confusing to watch or that don't wear their purpose on their sleeve then this one won't be for you. For everyone in between, it's worth checking out.

This film is in the same vein as a David Lynch movie, making absolutely no sense, with the exception of it didn't suck poop like a David Lynch movie. Until I find out more about it, it seems to me this movie was written by Cronenberg after he fried on acid, and he basically just wrote down his drug trip word for word. Still, who doesn't love to see tree-somes between a guy, a girl and a typewriter, a bunch of aliens chained up to have their gizzum drained from tubes on their heads, and countless references to giant centipedes that get ground up into drugs?
