By no means is this a good movie. At about 90 minutes, it feels twice as long. The pace is beyond slow and the characters are dull and one dimensional EXCEPT FOR.. (wait for it..) James Franco. He is just about the ONLY reason to watch this. You actually forget you are watching the same guy from 127 hours or Freaks and Geeks. He is the real deal. I can't say that I've seen any other Harmony Korine's movies but I know he does have some artistic choices that work. The neon florescent night scenes are beautiful but unfortunately the scenes go on for too long.
Overall: James Franco is the real deal but this movie is a long music video that makes you feel icky.
