This movie.......portraits a small Texan crazy life like any other ........doomed from the begining.....ahhhh what a shame.
A very sub-par sequel to an exceptionally good movie. Perhaps if it wasn't a sequel to Last Picture Show it might be held in a bit more esteem. A lot of characters return from the first movie... for no reason and the style is so strikingly different (the color really is jarring) ...( read more)
Disappointing...liked the Last Picture Show a lot...was let down by this totally DIFFERENT style of sequel...
Did not mesh well with the original at all...
Definitely quirky and hokey at times, but there is also a lot of depth, good directing, and some excellent quotes to boot in this Dallas-on-crack movie. I didn't realize this was a sequel to The Last Picture Show until after I saw it.
decent followup to the last picture show but not nearly as fun as the first
The sequel to The Last Picture Show wasn't as engaging mainly because it was not shot like the original, which is what gave it its charm. A bit of a boring film and unncessary sequel.
