I’ve seen it before, but it was a strange trip. I couldn’t connect the pieces as they were put together. This car is property of the world bank, that money is going to Italy. Vague memories were connect by the many comedic bits spread throughout. His pants will be crusted with semen from constantly jacking-off when he can’t find a rape victim. This is what they used at Kent State. How long had I been lying there. All these signs of violence. I realized that Benicio Del Toro was the better of the two actors. Thou I suppose his role required shifts, Johnny Depp just needed to be. Terry Gilliam is the perfect director for a work of this consumption. He creates a film that becomes the essence of its parts. Not a liner story that one can put together on a Sunday afternoon. Not one section really stands out. You can’t say, hot damn those sets were amazing! Instead its a bunch of little scraps, a funny line here and there, an amusing conversation, those damn bats. Poor bastard will see them soon enough.
