@davesdead33 Totally agree! I'd like to see her make something with even a tenth the amount of depth of ST. But it's always the way with these critics- they can't create, and so they criticize. I think you need to be pretty switched on to NWO/ elitist/ military industrialist agendas to full appreciate this movie's brilliance.

the movie was "Eh" to me, i wanted to like it but it left so much out. you never find out exactly whats up with sean william scott's characters, or even justin timberlake's. because to me at the end, i think SWS character is not twins, but the future/past him, and also that JT character is actually SWS character after the plastic surgery. but who knows, its watchable, but very confusing. so imma read the graphic novels and then watch it again.

The movie was hot garbage. Kelly wishes he was david lynch. The worst attempt at political satire i have ever seen. Anyone trying to say this movie is a masterpiece in anyway has not see enough movies and mistakes overly complicated with smart and important

Karina Longworth needs to learn to respect Southland Tales. Southland Tales was a masterpiece at Cannes (I saw it there) and a masterpiece in the theatrical cut. I all behind the theatrical cut, but I gotta say it was even better at Cannes. One of my five favorite movies of all-time.

The nurses are supposed to look like Marilyn Monroe... NOT Christina Aguilera.

Don't beleive the critics opinion in regard to this amazingly visionary work of art! It's almost as if they sat down to watch it expecting to see a new Donnie Darko...

It's story line flows in an almost abstract non-linear dream state, which of course is how you would expect time and reality to act if a rift into the 4th dimension had burst through the planet...

I hope more people give this film a chance and look at it through an open mind.

I didn't see the film festival version, but the release at the local Blockbuster was really VERY good. I think Richard Kelly is very visionary, and his movies take time to settle in as the socio-politcal climate changes. Southland Tales is very relevant today. It throws in the Neo-Marxist movement, similar to the Ron Paul movement, (though not philosophically the same)...a movement none the less. Also the imagery of the hills burning evokes memories of the wildfires in SoCal. Cult Classic.

I saw Southland Tales yesterday at the Boulder International Film Festival and holy ****!!! It was AWESOME!!! Yes it's really weird and 95% of the movie your wondering what the hell is going on but at the end things start to come together. There are so many hidden references in the movie that I bet you could watch it 5 times and still be surprised with things you discover. Rent it when it comes out!
