I actually liked the movie alot, but oddly enough i did not like the main plot so much. There were alot of interesting characters, particularly the other members of the band, but the main characters left alot to be desired. The movie was fast paced and filmed well, with bits of humor about things completely unrelated to the actual movie plot, but I enjoyed those parts the most. especially the rant about cindy crawford being a tool. Unfortunately I found the main characters not very likeable. The leader of the band was pretty cool, but a little too hot tempered, while her girlfriend is a total manipulator who can't decide what she wants, so just leaves everyone unhappy. She leaves her girlfriend for her ex-boyfriend who is generally just an annoying character and causes unrest within the band. Then she breaks up with him again, but does not get back with her ex girlfriend. I did not enjoy that story plot at all. It sounds funny, but other than the main plot the movie was great.

Like in "Chasing Amy" the guy gets the girl. It was a twist that my partner and I were really not interested in. She then ends up leaving him to be alone anyway. The main character is manipulative and I quote "treats everyone she loves like s@#t". The music is cool and some scenes are very sexy...then there was the guy....
 This movie is about my life at its craziest- October 12, 1999
in other words, it reminded me exactly how crazy my life is generally. (I saw it on the big screen in NYC.) Full of sex, music, zines, emotional baggage, neuroses and love tringles gone bad, I'd recommend it to any twenty-something out there who has problems with cultural and/or political norms (you know who you are). If you fit that bill, you too will likely think you're watching your life on screen. Both a critique of pop culture and, even more so, of those of us who do our best to avoid it, this movie pulls few (emotional) punches in portraying the lives of twenty-somethings "on the edge". Be prepared to laugh, to cry, to get angry, and to maybe fall in love with one (or more) of the characters, as these people will remind you of your life and of your friends, enemies, exes, and lovers (and any combination of the above you may have experienced)... but absolutely do not see it if you're not willing to laugh at yourself until it hurts. This movie closes with Ani Difranco's "Buildings and Bridges", and that song's the best summary of the plot that I could hope to offer- if you know the song, you'll know what I mean. (BTW- If you've never heard of Ani Difranco, this movie is probably not for you- unless you want to learn something about how us "subculture" freaks (& other deviants) live.)
