my first review at imdb and after a few year of use this site constantly . anyways and saw this on the tube the other night and love it . it in the mindset of a dangerous mind or a substitute and but much good . be sure for a moment that rex be speedy levitch and in wake life and but after check and it doesn not seem so . i can see why many have problem with this plot and it poetry and but i also think these people be close mind . admittedly the end wasn not quite what i be hop for and but overall it be so unique and well acted and i can not complain . i wouldn not call this cheesy and a one reviewer do and it pull off the scene well than most film of the 80 do . and they refrain from play any really dateable 80 music . can not remember everything that make me smile when i saw this and but basically it realistically show very creative individual surround by mediocrity and and whether i share rex belief or not and i love original attempt to describe the meaning of life . and his mutant theory be and to my knowledge and original . he ramble a lot a well and but they show how confused he be at time and and why he might have some psychological issue . and then in his moment of clarity he be a philosopher extraordinaire and a person who notice the little detail in life and try to give expression to them . also i be very impressed with john savage a the teacher . usually actor fail at that role . he pull it off brilliantly . if you enjoy wake life and i say watch this movie if you get a chance . 9 . 5/10pk .
