This pretentious trash is horrible. It is THE worst movie of 1999, hands down. Even with the great cast they had, P.T. Anderson must have been drunk through the entire directing process. My god... why did he do this to me? Why Paul, why? Fear this movie, but if you like spending three hours watching a bunch of whiny adults feel sorry about themselves and and try and redeem themselves by whining more about how dumb and whiny they are, you will love this movie. Ugh....
