Plot: An inside look into one night in the San Francisco underground rave scene.
Has it's moments. Dance music peeked 2 or 3 years before this movie, and a lot of it was crap then. Much of the tunes in this feel like the stuff you play while waiting for things to kick off. Digweed sounds like he plays some good tracks though
Never been a big dance fan, and not a fan of this culture, but this seemed to be a well rounded movie. Linklater (who plays David) is a poor mans Keanu Reeves in this. Check out Human Traffic instead though
I love this movie, it's got great music, colorful characters, and an ending that will leave you with a smile on your face. :) I'm sure this film appeals to me most, because of the hard-ships and the up-sides to life, that it captures. It makes me think of all the stresses that invade me every day, and reminds me that everything will eventually be ok. Two Thumbs Way Up.
The 1st movie for Underground Parties & Trance- Progressive music.
John Digweed as a guest DJ.
The rating is totally for the music & the party "enviroment"...
- "Thank You ..."
I liked in high school when I used to rave and do drugs... now I don't think I could watch it unless I wanted to vomit. But Digweed still owns!
This movie comes closer than any other to capturing what the rave scene was and is truly like, probably because it was directed by real ravers. The story goes that the production ran into some financial trouble, until some Silicone Valley ravers, riding the crest of the dotcom wave, rocked up and wrote out a cheque that allowed the producers to finish the movie... The result was possibly the only true reflection of a culture that was badly misrepresented by the press as the 'chemical culture' - newsflash, chemicals had been around for years before.
Anyway... The mailing list culture, the driving around, the warehouse parties, dropping your first ANYTHING, the false sense of love and security, the true friends, hovering on the edge of insanity but being totally sure that you were fine. That's what it was all about, and this movie makes you tingle, sweat and rush - it's awesome and real. The soundtrack rocks and the people are humans.
Essential viewing.
Those were the good old days of 'being bulletproof' and they were awesome.
the closest movie to an underground rave scene in SF, its not perfect but its pretty damn close to any old skool party kids
it was only a year after i went to my first rave that this movie hit the scene a must have in any collection
Omg ya'll this movie sucks. And blows. I hate it on so many levels, including the level that I hate that movie Object of Her Affection. It makes me angry. And long for the days I was unconscious...
All tho there was not much of a storyline as such, if you were "there" in the height of the hardcore kicking rave scene back in the early 90's (both illegal raves and organized raves) then like me, you'll probably find many fantastic memories of those good times come flooding back! This movie left me yearning for a time machine to go back and DO IT ALL AGAIN!! haha
John Digweed is the man. Its a great flick for a budding DJ too. I liked it. And not to try pills til you meet a hot raver girl.
It was okay. I think it would have been cooler if they showed more of the setting up of the party. Took me back.
Came out around the same time as Human Traffic, well, here a few months difference, both very excellent.
as far as rave movies go, i was dissapointed...the storyline turned to be very cheesy...altho parts of the cinematography, especially the lighting impressed me. But if your interested in rave movies, Human Traffic is a far better choice.
Sex, drugs, booze, rave, what more could ask for in good movie well about pretty much what I said, its a party movie so watch like your in the party.....
the reason i'm a DJ right here... RIGHT HERE
if you've ever been to a rave you owe it to yourself to see this movie. It's so good and so amazing. I love it... there's a poster for it on my wall right now.
