Southland Tales

Rambling, confusing, insightful, pretentious, long, post-apocalyptic, time travel story by the writer and director of Donny Darko, Richard Kelly. Set in the near future, America is recovering from a nuclear attack and impending environmental disaster. The best thing going for this film is its humour and huge ensemble cast, including Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson as an amnesiac movie star, Sarah Michelle Gellar as a self promoting porn star, Sean William Scott as a confused cop, plus Christopher Lambert, Jon Lovitz, Janeane Garafalo, Bai Ling, and many more. The worse thing going for it is its length and lack of coherent plot. Remember, Scientists are saying the future is going to be far more futuristic than they originally predicted.
