Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
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.
Prismark10 Small town Texas mechanic Earl Crest (Joshua Jackson) is a simple man living a simple life with his girlfriend Baby (Jaime King) who also became his stepsister after their parents married each other. Earl had witnessed his father being killed in a bar when he was a boy.Baby is a waitress who dreams of becoming an actress in LA and they have saved up to move there and hope to make it big.Events take a dark turn when his dim cousin Junior (DJ Qualls) and his slimy friend Tinker (Ryan Hurst) steal money from local mobsters and Earl gets roped in to save his cousin Junior. Things get confusing as Tinker is double crossing them and a rival set of gangsters are also after them.Lone Star State of Mind is a southern black comedy with a lot of clichés and a few inverted ones such as the tough gay friend. Unfortunately it has paper thin characters, too many stereotypes and wants to be a left field violent comedy like Raising Arizona. There is a tacked on ending but even that is predictable. Still its sporadically amusing and remains watchable.
amdillow-1 This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I live down south and find myself quoting this movie all the time. Watch this movie if you want to laugh so hard you might pee. Do not watch this movie if you are trying to break a world record for not laughing and only have 90 minutes to go.A great cast complements a script and this one was perfect. I've talked friends and family into watching this movie and everyone that's watched has told me it really is one of the funniest movies they have seen.There is some partial nudity and adult situations it may not be for everyone but I've shared this with folks I go to church with and They thought it was funny and in good taste.
cschultzy56 i personally loved this movie. i was introduced to this movie by my fiancé's parents who said it was one of the funniest movies they've ever seen and I'm inclined to agree with them. showed it to my parents who are late 50's early 60's and they both loved it. took it with me when i was stationed at camp Pendleton. showed it to a group of people some from rural areas, and some from cities outside of Texas. and the main thing i noticed is you have to understand this kind of humor to like this movie. the guys from rural areas and Texas all laughed cuz they either understood the joke or knew someone like the character's in the movie. and the other people were mad at me for making them sit through my favorite movie. in all honesty if you don't have a little back country blood in you you're probably not gonna like this movie. if you do i'll bet you'll love it.
alfiebeaut I loved this film! It was so funny. A great comedy all round. Joshua Jackson and DJ Qualls make a great pair in this film. They just bounce off each other and they had me in stitches. So funny! I first watched this when it came out on DVD and it's my second best film.I watch it on a daily basis and never get bored. I'd tell everyone to buy it and watch it. Even the most serious people will laugh over this movie. I'd call it a classic. The humour is silly/sarcastic but it's a great mix! Ryan Hurst is also fantastic in this. This film seemed written for the people who played in it. Brilliant cast, brilliantly written and utterly funny.
