The title tells it all really. I'm been secretly looking forward to
Southland Tales because of how much I enjoyed
Richard Kelly's unique voice in the industry after his
Donnie Darko movie, which has somehow ended up with this meteoric cult status. I mean it's a pretty fun movie but there's so many other low budget independent movies that are released every year that is just as good as that one but still I enjoyed it. I know one good friend of mine absolutely hates Darko. He can't get over how the movie ends and his want for a nice resolution to tie up all the loose threads, frustrates him. He finds the movie pointless and where I agree the ending seems a little weak (actually, it's a lack of ending because I'm not sure Kelly could think of one!), it was a genius conclusion to start a cult craze. So the trailer for Southland Tales is finally released and now it's me that's irritated. I'm frustrated because I don't know what the hell is going on. The only thing that I understand is that
The Rock is cool... and I wanna see more of him... and if The Rock's cool then maybe Southland Tales is cool too.
