10/03/03: Rotten Tomatoes

Posted By: Scorsese_fan

Holy crap, 86 fresh & only 7 rotten reviews. The only rotten review from the cream of the crop in James Berardinelli, who I don't really consider "cream of the crop." It looks as if this film may have Golden Globe nominations locked down for best picture comedy/musical, best actor comedy/musical, and best screenplay comedy/musical. More importantly, it gives Richard Linlater the opportunity to do whatever he wants. Frankly, I was a bit worried after "Waking Life" and "Tape" didn't stir up much box office.
