Manorainjan Holzapfel I've seen this long ago on German TV in a well synchronized version which is unfortunately not available as DVD.Which I remember best is the cool acting of Grace Jones as "Sonya", (kind of a black 'Red Sonja' in a business suit) the secretary of "I. G. Farben" Dennis Hopper. She did all the needful things for him starting from looking sexy up to execution of his will (he plays a good father like role) by means of a machine gun.If You are in a too serious analytical mood, You wouldn't have much fun with this. But if You are in the mood for some surrealistic fun, than this is it, just like some of the stuff Jim Jarmusch has done.Don't expect this move to make sense, just go with the flow; which could eventually mean to take a run ;-)

MARIO GAUCI I hadn't watched any of Cox's films prior to this one, but had always appreciated his knowledgeable input on the DVD of many a cult item (most recently several "Masters Of Cinema" titles).Well, this turned out to be a major disappointment – considering its Spaghetti Western references (of which Cox is a devotee and, indeed, the end credits include a special mention to, among others, Giulio Questi – director of DJANGO, KILL! [1967]) and the cast made up of several rock performers (who, apparently, had been convened together for a concert which never materialized!); though I knew beforehand that Leonard Maltin had rated it a BOMB in his Film Guide, so I guess I only have myself to blame! Anyway, the film is a test to anyone's patience with its gallery of utterly dislikeable characters (a rather plump Courtney Love being especially irritating – a far cry from her subsequent appearance, in both senses of the word, in Milos Forman's THE PEOPLE VS. LARRY FLYNT [1996]!), hopelessly amateurish presentation and the inane attempts at genre spoofing…though, to its credit, the soundtrack is pretty good (which was to be expected, after all). Also featured in the cast are Dennis Hopper, whose one scene barely registers, and director Jim Jarmusch (turning up in front of the camera towards the end) as a baddie!

driver_8 This film has two of the greatest music icons in the history of the world in it. I am talking about Joe Strummer (of the Clash and Mescaleros) and Shane MacGowan (of the Pogues and Popes). So in that regard, you have to give it a 10. However, if you are not a Clash or Pogues fan, you will most likely think this film sucks! Why? Because the film sucks. But wait a minute, you just said that you have to give it a 10? Right (voice in head), I did say that and I did give it a 10. Because Joe Strummer and Shane MacGowan are my two favorite musicians of all-time. So, they earn this thing a 10. Now, you raise a good question (voice in head), what if Strummer and MacGowan were not in this film? Well, I would probably give it a 1. Oh yeah, the story. Some people rob a bank and then go to hide out in this strange and isolated city in the Spanish countryside. There are violent and weird people that live there. So staying alive and holding on to the money will be difficult. Did I mention that this film has Joe Strummer and Shane MacGowan in it? Yeah, I gave it a 10, but, it really wasn't a good....you know what I am getting at?

donpauljones This is not a good movie. It seems like Cox is trying to duplicate the flavor of RepoMan. It's really just a collection of disjointed skits that are funny at times, but don't amount to anything. The only things that make this worth seeing are the Pogues. Yes, the entire band with Shane in all his toothless glory! It also features Courtney Love before she made it big and turned into a sleazy, hipocritical glamour queen. Of course, Dick Rude is entertaining and Strummer doesn't do too badly. If you like any of the above people, then you'll get something out of this movie. If you have no idea who these people are (with exception of Courtney), don't bother.
