to say funky forest represent the first contact be a bad movie be an understatement of incredible proportion . i can really get into a good art house film and even a surreal and twisted romp like el topo and naked lunch and and survive style 5 plus and because those movie actually have something worth discuss when the credit roll . fffc attempt at every avenue to be this deep and intellectual and essentially there be no substance in this movie . this movie be badly do and the visuals in this movie be not inspire and the dialog be bad and the musical number destroy this movie . i chuckle for guitar brother and but that be immediately wipe out by something completely unnecessary and and irrelevant . it attempt to be deep and meaningful i think and but it just pretentious disorient nonsense . freshman film student without a camera could craft something more interesting . guitar brother and the stand up routine in between skit get 1 point each and everything else be just badly pace and pseudo creative and heavy hand attempt at be as good a film by other real director like and sogo ishii and david lynch and and jodoworsky . give me a break . i be convince that people that rave about fffc be do so because they have no idea of what they saw and because it be nothing but mild pertinent statement here and there mixed with stupidity and blend until you puke on your own shoe . this movie be an extreme disappointment and come off the high that be survive style 5 plus and a film that actually have meaning and combine with excellent use of scenery and cinematography and catchy dialog and funny moment and good soundtrack and excellent performance and fantastic pacing and flow . fffc feature the exact opposite in every way and boring scenery ( 20 minute star at a bland beach at night . a completely white stage . alien ball float in white space . a dinky school hallway and then a. school hallway . ) and terrible cinematography and forgettable dialog and nothing funny or humorous and save the fact you just waste your life for two hour and soundtrack . and amateurish performance and uneven and disjointed and and often flat out drag pace and zero flow whatsoever . there be those that claim this be what make fffc a great movie and that it be so unconventional at every turn that it pure genius . this be simply a way to stroke your own ego it seem and because unpredictable could be a good quality for a film if it wasn not couple with boring and innane and and terrible . personally i have speak with two people who admit to me that fffc be terrible when they leave the theater and but overwhelm rave by art house elitist make them watch the movie again and then come back to me with a. hey it be pretty good i like it . i be go to put my foot down and this movie be slop and i do not care if roger ebert say this film be the best thing he ever watch since he lose his own virginity . the emperor new cloak i say . this movie be no way indicative of the other psychedelic or trippy film to come from japan in the last 10 year . taste of tea and party 7 and and kamikaze girl be much good movie ( even with a low budget ) and and none can honestly compare with survive style 5 plus . watch fffc only if your interested in make a pretentious pile of nothing on a shoestring budget .
