An aspiring writer has an interesting friend. They wander around popping bennies, drinking liquor, sharing sexual encounters with women, speeding when they drive and hitchhiking.
The premise sounds good, right? At least interesting. Unfortunately, it didn't go anywhere from there. That was it. Most of it looked good. There were a few too many handheld shots for my taste (hand holding is for romance, not movies). The characters were relatively good. Much more memorable than those from 1980s Chinese kung fu flicks. There was a really good musical performance at 1:40:32. The jazz vocalist onstage is either speaking a foreign language or using nonsense words. That's really all I have to say about this. I rate it o.k. because the subject matter was good, but the plot was seriously lacking.
