This movie features the collaborative directorial efforts of four new filmmakers, each of whom directs a segment of this comedy. It's New Year's Eve at the Mon Signor Hotel, a former grand old Hollywo...( read more  read more... )od hotel, now fallen upon hard times. Often using physical comedy and sight gags, this movie chronicles the slapstick misadventures of Ted, the Bellhop. He's on his first night on the job, when he's asked to help out a coven of witches in the Honeymoon Suite. Things only get worse when he delivers ice to the wrong room and ends up in a domestic argument at a really bad time. Next, he foolishly agrees to watch a gangster's kids for him while he's away. Finally, he finishes off the night refereeing a ghastly wager.

    Poor Ted... what a freak show.

    Tim Roth rocks in this movie.

    The first "room" leaves a bit to be desired, but after that hilarity ensues.

    The 2nd segment was really slow and boring and dumb. The first one was amusing. The third one was pretty awesome and I think it was the best.

    Wow oh wow was this an awful group of movies. There really isn't anything good. Tim Roth managed to a great job with the material but I can't find anything good to say about any of this. Simply said put don't bother with any of this.

    I was really disappointed in this movie because I am a huge fan of many of the people that worked on this project. I thought it was poorly written - far too eccentric and tried to make the heightened sexuality funny and central to the plot but missed completely. I felt the crude ...( read more)plot lines detracted from what could have been done, because of that it seemed like a very amateur film. The eccentric quality was clearly what the 4 were going for however, I felt it was annoying, and hard to watch.

    The first half of the film is absolutely terrible. You will want to die when you watch it. Thankfully the film picks up and it ends brilliantly.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

The four segments are widely different in quality. On the useful scale of the Michelin guides, one is worth a trip, another is worth a detour, and the other two are a colossal waste of bandwidth. full review

    I liked it alot but I just love that 6 minute or so long take at the first of
    "The Man From Hollywood" Followed but another long take shortly after. A pretty ingenious way to do a segment
    of a film.
    Then theres QT kinda poking fun at himself after the success of
    R.Dogs and Pulp.(examples)-
    "It's FUCKING Cristal!Everything else is just piss!"
    (as well as his temper tantrum over "flat Cristal")
    "Whooole lotta muthafuckas saw-"The Wacky Detective!"
    "That's FUCKING ASSES in FUCKING SEATS!"
    a pretty under-talked about thing for him,of course the last 2 segments are the best(RR's is pretty funny and the comedy gets darker as it goes...)
    The 2nd segment was pretty funny as well with the
    married couple.
    Although,like most ppl,the 1st is my least favorite,its
    still pretty good.
