12/13/2020 I've watched this movie intently a handful of times. I believe it is a fantastic movie! Fantastic because it really catches the spirit of how wild life can be and how if you put the right shoes on in the morning you can enjoy life. I can see how the movies premise may be wild and surreal, but if you have lived this you've lived it. Both characters are just trying to find a home. In the end they are two separate, fleshed out, and as complete as one-can-be, individuals, but they have a special place in each others hearts and they are together. I love the side characters too. This film is youth after innocence. See more 03/16/2010 i just love 80's movies what can i say... See more 09/12/2008 A pathetic attempt at a comedy, but as a philosophical look at life and how/why we live ours the way we do, it's reasonably interesting. Language hinders rather than intensifying. I don't think it's worth seeing again, but I would probably read the screenplay. See more Read all reviews
