when i saw this film at the 2000 toronto international film festival it sound like a lark and i know i would get to see kevin smith and the producer and at the screening . i do but th film itself be offensive and poorly write and poorly act and purely pointless . the film fail on pretty much every level . the main character be a clown yet the actor who play him have no sense of comedic timing . the film pacing and plot change gear so often and so poorly watch it be like rid with a student driver first learn on a standard transmission car . the subject matter of the film be far too dark to be treat comedicly . i be not sure how long the film rape scene actually be and maybe 10 minute and but it felt like 30. and that not even the most disturbing scene in the film . yet 2 minute later we be expect to laugh at silly trivial material . it doesn not work . even the soundtrack be so loud and grate it physically painful and and at the screening i be at and the director override the complaint of audience member demand it be turn down . that inexcusable . no film should ever attempt to or physically or hurt it audience . in the end the film be force to introduce ridiculous string of coincidence in order to avoid a realistic response from it main character and allow a forced happy end . it doesn not work and on any level and ever . the only positive thing i can say about writer or director or actor bryan johnson be that he save the best and most realistic dialogue for the the character he play himself . his character doesn not seem long he belong in this movie but and then again and neither do anyone else and neither do i and neither do you . vulgar be what it claim to be and i give it a 1 out 10 and i think i would rather gauge my own eye out than see it again .
