if youre a fan of the late gram parson then this movie be definitely go to divide you . part comedy and part road movie and but mostly a bad fictionalization of one of rock history odd tale . spoiler basically the story concern a well know roadie name phil kaufman ( play by johnny knoxville ) who supposedly make a pact with cult rock or country or folk music hero gram parson that state when one of them die first ( it do not matter which one it be ) that the other live one be to take the decease out to the desert and joshua tree national park in california to be exact and and set the body ablaze . so a to free the spirit and become one with the earth and and so on . sure to keep his word the barely sober kaufman and with the assistance of a self hating and pot head buddy and jack the body of the late parson whom have fatally overdose from a drug and booze bender a day prior from the airport . and shortly after that what ensue be a cringe worthy combination of fiction and truth where the late parson girlfriend and kaufman girlfriend and parson stone face father and and a gaggle of police officer and other pointless idiotic character all try to beat the clock ( so to speak ) in try to catch kaufman and his pal before they get the chance to torch parson body . the film incompetent direction and bad acting and and lame offbeat tone in general all sink this movie faster than the titanic . and not to mention the huge fact that this movie be not even halfway tell the truth of the actual event that take place . the accuracy that should have replace the inaccuracy and as far a i have hear them and include represent number 1. and parson be marry at the time of his death and even have a child and so what the hell be that all about with the girlfriend and the chasing and whatnot . and number 2. and kaufman drug out buddy be a known willing participant ( unlike what the movie attempt to portray ) in the disposing of parson body and and finally number 3. and gram parson real life father die when he be just a boy and and so it be parson step father ( who could have honestly care less about gram parson when he be still alive ) in real life that take care of the body after it be torch . altogether though and what probably disturb me the most about this movie be that the real phil kaufman be actually on set to help assist with the fact of the story . and yet still and the movie end up become so untrue and so bad that it really boggle my mind and frankly . also a the mediocre aforementioned act in the film be concern it lead character and play by the ultra grating johnny knoxville ( phil kaufman ) and be not only a bad actor but it actually seem a if he be asleep throughout most of the movie and and the rest of the pathetic cast be for the most part either hysterical and brain dead and or seem utterly clueless a to what theyre actually do there in the first place . overall and if you like johnny knoxville and or really dig the so bad theyre not even good buddy flick then i suppose you just might get a kick out of this movie . but and if youre like me and be a fan of the late gram parson and enjoy film that attempt to tell the truth as much a they can especially if theyre base on an actual real life story and and or you just like good film and be them road movie and or fictional slice of life stuff and you will truly loathe this film and advise others to do likewise . i obviously hat this movie and wish it have never be make in the first place and but since it be make i would have prefer it to have turn out differently than what it do and unfortunately . maybe some day the real fact of the story will come through and be make into a really great biopic on all of gram parson life . not just what happen to his body after his spirit leave it . but and until that time come all we a an audience and and or fan of the late performer get be this sad waste of film and an all around terrible memorial ( of sort ) to the musical legacy that gram parson be know to have leave behind . it should also be note that they do actually use parson music and and a few others as well in the flick and but not surprisingly though and you never get to hear enough of it to really enjoy it even in the slight bit .
