Boogie Nights

i love this film. the gorgeous opening shot, a fantastic one shot piece of work that astounds me every time. ostensibly about the porn industry, we see the rise and fall of eddy/dirk and those surrounding him. almost all the supporting characters are fully fleshed out and some of them you truly care about. don cheadle has never been better, burt reynolds is in his prime and mark wahlberg? brilliant. read more

watching mark wahlberg's face getting punched has some therapeutic effect to it. loved the movie, perfect pacing, wonderfully written scenario, fully engaging story. had some wolf of wall street vibes to it, which is a major compliment (?). i guess i'm in a pta groove right now... read more

this was only my first re-watch of boogie nights and i think it hasn't aged as well as i'd imagined. i think a lot of what i loved about the film was its unpredictability, that i didn't know what to expect from pta's style, or from latter-day burt, or from young wahlberg and cast. everything was refreshing. but now we've seen a lot of these elements repeated in other films, and it's hard to go back. wahlberg doing his "earnest, high-voiced" thing, don cheadle deadpan riffing, and oh my god...john c. reilly. now that we've seen his over-the-top improv statements in so many other films, i found... read more

PTA's most entertaining (out of those I've seen) film and most definitely my favourite group of characters from any film of his. All his films have deeply "human" characters, but here it was more prominent than ever how everyone here is flawed, incomplete, yearning for purpose and fulfilment, but it balances all this without ever becoming a depressing or heavy handed movie, with one great scene regularly following another with camera movement indicative of a filmmaker having a total blast. read more

That movie that lets you know you have a small dick. But on a serious note, it finds divinity in sin. Hell and paradise exist in parallel. You're kinda always on the verge of both. I dunno what magic PTA is casting here, but somehow he transforms reality with it. read more

teinipojalla on iso meisseli. ura aikuisviihteessä kutsuu. menestys kilahtaa hattuun. ihmiskohtaloita, niiden nousuja ja tuhoja. pornoteollisuuden satirisointia. perustuu kevyesti john holmesin elämään. hitusen liian pitkä. leffa siis. read more
