Review
This oddball comedy delivers
an arguably valid comment on the booming music video culture of the
1980s, with John Cusack and Tim Robbins playing two underachievers
dreaming of making it big as video producers. The direction is so unskilled
and the writing so erratic that the film almost becomes a gaudy
curiosity deserving of a cult following. But just almost. If watched
with low expectations, it has its moments.
