Movie Reviews of Coffee and Cigarettes
Movie Review: What went wrong?
Summary: 1 Stars
I just recently stumbled across 'Coffee and Cigarettes' at the library and I thought why not rent it it's free. I would not have paid a penny for this movie. It was extremly painful to sit through. I made it 20 minutes and couldn't take anymore. I'm not going to pretend to be a fan of Jim Jarmusch, but I enjoyed 'Stranger in Paradise' and 'Broken Flowers' which I highly recommend.
The line up of actors were good, but the movie did not deliver. It felt as if all the actors were amateur. I could keep going, but really their is no point. It's just that bad. In the future I'll check out more movies by him. I don't doubt his talent. This one I have to give a one star.
Summary of Coffee and Cigarettes
Celebrated writer-director Jim Jarmusch (Mystery Train) serves up this witty and intoxicating brew that's "as addictive as caffeine" (Richard Roeper, "Ebert & Roeper and the Movies") and "as buzzy and ephemeral as, well, coffee and cigarettes" (LA Weekly)! "Sneakily delirious [and] way cool" (Time), this "funny cluster of eleven stories" (Rolling Stone) delivers "inspired eccentric match-ups" (The Hollywood Reporter) from an incredible all-star cast, making Coffee and Cigarettes an absolute must for fans of film, fun and fantastic wit!Now here is a movie that's practically perfect for DVD. Shot over many years with eccentric actors, Jim Jarmusch's collection of black-and-white vignettes is as uneven as a collection of music videos (without songs). Even with the dull spots and the drop-dead-hip ambiance, there's something touching about this parade of frazzled people holding on to their coffee and cigarettes like life rafts--especially in the final sequence with Taylor Mead. There are some severely misconceived pieces, but the best are a treat: Alfred Molina and Steve Coogan in a hilarious Hollywood encounter, Tom Waits and Iggy Pop getting off on the wrong foot in a funky diner, and Cate Blanchett doing a dual role as herself and a jealous cousin. Bill Murray can't save one underwritten piece, but Jack and Meg White are amusing in an absurdist blackout. Use the Scene Selection menu, and revel in the fetishizing of java and butts. --Robert Horton
