      Audience Member One of my favorite movies, if not my favorite! I want to watch it over and over again. Its the happiest drug movie i've ever seen. I love the bottom line of the movie: do what makes you happy no matter what all those other dumb fuckers think! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A Great Great Great MOVIE! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked the movie a great deal..I am wanting to see it again...It is not a Fast Food production, as in a throw together movie,,,this movie is good and the characters are intertwined in their lives even though they may not know it...It is a good dry comedy too. I agree this movie may not be appreciated by everyone, but, I liked it much... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member More messy than quirky low budget comedy, original but borderline boring, which is too bad because there were some great ideas there. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow, that was terrible. I saw no redeeming qualities to this scatter-brained snooze fest that seems to forget about the plot it started with. Encourage someone you hate to watch this and it'll be sweet revenge. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member great film but def not 4 everyone Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times An ambitious but misfired comedy about an agoraphobic junkie. Rated: 2/5 Jul 29, 2009 Full Review Tim Grierson L.A. Weekly Rather than funny ha-ha, this is all meant to be funny sad, but American Cowslip's clunky pacing, chintzy aesthetics and aggressively juvenile tone vaporize any possible sympathy for the characters.
