Nonureva Really Surprised!
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
bkoganbing The only two names you will recognize in the cast of Hollywood Flies are Casper Van Dien as a rich club owner who is now confined to a wheelchair because of a car wreck he caused while driving intoxicated and Brad Renfro as a sad sack bank robber. I guess they were there for a little bit of box office insurance, but these two both saw better film projects.Van Dien's main squeeze Caprice Bourret has given him the air, but Casper is a spoiled rich guy who doesn't take no for an answer. He sics a private detective.At the same time Anthony Cupo meets up with his sister Bianca Guerrero just over from Italy and they pick up two hitchhikers Vinnie Jones and Renfro. Big mistake this two did a bank robbery where one guy was killed and they've stashed the loot in a bus station locker. They hold Guerrero and want Cupo to go to Los Angeles and get their money.Cupo and Bourret hook up under some odd circumstances and now everyone would like to get that loot.The story is pretty lame with a lot of holes in it. But some real acting is done by Jones and Renfro who met each other in the joint. When Renfro says Jones helped him make it through prison you know exactly what Jones got from him in return. Jones is one dangerous dude.Still Jones and Renfro are not enough to make up for the rest of the film.
OrdinaryDay Hollywood Flies is a rip-roaring action neo-noir thriller, the kind of film you would expect if Quentin Tarantino and Dave Barry eevr wrote a screenplay together! Two young siblings are cruising the countryside when they pick up a couple of hitchhikers who seem a bit dodgy... one thing leads to another and bodies start dropping like flies, which is where I assume the movie got its title from. Renfro gives the performance of his career as young hooligan Jamie, who starts being attracted to the kidnapped girl, which may compromise his relationship with his co-conspirator. Fantastic performances, great acting and a roaring soundtrack make Hollywood Flies one of the most underrated gems of 2004! A must see!
Vincenzo_Coccotti Not the worst movie (Gerry) I've ever seen... if you've got an hour and a half or so to burn late at night then go for it.Vinnie Jones owns this movie. His character was the only one with any real fire. Without him this would have been a total sleeper.Brad Renfro was weak. I mean his character was weak, but I don't think it should have been that weak. Maybe this was due to the director...I thought the script and the story was weak. The scenery was good. I'm big on scenery. Would have been better (from a guy's perspective) with a bit of brief nudity. I mean I think in the context of this film it was expected so it left the feeling that something was missing. Not a big thing really but this film wasn't a big thing either.I thought Bianca Guaccero was good. She was/is not only quite beautiful but she did a very good job with what she had to work with.I wasn't impressed by Caprice Bournet at all. She is pretty and I guess they needed another pretty face. But they could of put just about anyone else in place of her without any problem.I agree with a previous poster. This movie started out with promise, then just kinda fell flat.Late at night if you can't sleep or if you got nothing better to do and there's nothing else on this would be a better bet than something like Kinky Kong or some lame, soft snore Sinemax garbage.But that doesn't say much does it?
smiley-32 I rented this movie only because I wanted to see Caprice act.. Even though on her website.. She is a model/actress/TV Presenter/spokesmodel and the rest..I was watching this movie.. I must admit, it was all getting good and then it all went stale.. You got 2 bank robbers (VINNIE JONES and BRAD RENFO) kipnapping some girl (BIANCA GUACCERO) as they take some place and leave her for ransom. They tell this guy (ANTONIO CUPO) to deliver them their money or his Sister dies.. Along the way, comes another girl (CAPRICE) who happens to get involved as well.. But later on..? Well, you do the maths..I gotta hand it to you.. It's one of those sleazy type thrillers where you feel you're gonna get drawn to it. But then again.. you might bored with it. I got bored with it.. Somehow I didn't know where this film is taking the viewer.. It sounds there are parts of the film that I was really familiar with.. but it just keeps running out of steam at times..I don't know how this director Franco Segatori was trying to do here.. But it seems he put a good cast in a down low dirty shame of a script. However, it wasn't really up to my satisfaction in the end..Well, as for this Caprice gets a 7/10 for her acting.. The director gets 5/10 for his bit. The film gets a dismal 3/10Not my cup of tea..!
