Citas
Narrator: [introductory narrative] This, as you may or may not know, is London - headquarters of devaluation, socialism, and the permissive society. The people who live here are quite ordinary, clean-living, unostentatious human beings. And this is where the would-be non-conformists shop. This, on the other hand, is where the more knowledgeable shop, live, the more knowledgeable dine. To the uninitiated id, relaxation has a multitude of meanings. And even more of these for the older and more respectable members of our permissive society. Mr John Carter, the central character of the epic you're about to see could, under the circumstances, be described as a misfit. Having reached his prime in the days of rock 'n' roll, now nearing the ripe old age of 30, he's kind of old for Carnaby Street and not quite hard up enough for this. A small chapter in his quiet, mundane life starts here on a warm evening, for December, and in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

"Take Two" never uttered

This film takes bad to a whole new level. It's very clear that second takes were never attempted throughout the filming. From actors flubbing their lines and the flubs remaining in the final to waiting for two vehicles to enter a roadway and having to LITERALLY wait as oncoming traffic from both sides delay the shot. We sit and wait for traffic to clear, one vehicle pulling into one lane (blocking one car that had the right of way) and then turning on to the roadway and the second following close behind, still blocking a car that had the right of way.

The acting is terrible, the plot is impossible to follow...as if they made it up according to whatever they were able to catch on a good exposure of film...and the sound track. Oy...the sound track. Trying to imply action where there is none.

If you enjoy schmalz, this might be for you. If you prefer viable films with something to say...avoid.
