Oh Dear.

What can I say about this film??? Well whoever view's this film after "Jurassic Park" will never look at Laura Dern the same again!!! I did not like this film at all.It dragged and dragged and dragged Mr. Lynch could of ended the film long before his "Wizard of Oz" ending, I know this is because of continuity (Wicked Witch, The tapping of the Shoes) but shame on Lynch for such a unsatisfactory ending. I'm probably the only one I know who didn't like this film, one friend of mine described it well by saying it was "Dripping With Ick"!!!!! There are also links with the life of Sailor (Cage) with a certain Elvis Presley's early years (Wardrobe, his job as a truck driver and his voice) and I believe Lula (Dern) with Marilyn Monroe (Wardrobe, accent again). I thought the film would kick-ass after the first scene but it just drifted away into the Hollywood Archives or late night T.V listings!!!! Sorry but a poor 5/10.

score 5/10
