Review

A star rating of 4 out of 5.

Alan Jones

Director David Lynch goes over the top, over people's heads and somewhere over the psychedelic rainbow here in another ultra-violent and sleazily sexy pulp art attack. Forget the story; Lynch clearly has. Just follow Elvis-loving ex-convict Nicolas Cage and his trailer-trash girlfriend Laura Dern as they are pursued through the Deep South by her crazed mother's gumshoe lover, Harry Dean Stanton. Stuffed with the Sultan of Strange's transfixing brand of deranged visuals, haunting weirdness and exuberant camp, it's another hip and hypnotic rollercoaster ride through the twin peaks of pretentiousness and exhilaration.
