Movie Reviews of New Rose Hotel

Movie Review: New Rose Hotel sinks into ridiculously silly bore
Summary: 1 Stars

Christopher Walken (Suicide Kings, King Of New York) wants Asia Argento (Scarlet Diva, Land Of The Dead) to seduced brilliant geneticist so that he can switch firms. Willem Dafoe (The Clearing, Shadow of the Vampire) is Walken's partner and is in deep love with Argento and as we go threw the story it gets really boring and eventually in the process of seducing the guy, Argento goes missing, she vanishes, but where does she go? Dafoe ends up flashing back, remembering, thinking, maybe, was it him that Walken and Argento were messing with or whatever...the flashback segment goes on and on and we are rendered bored watching this poor sap try to puzzle the pieces together and when it comes to the end you dont care about any of the characters. The part where I laughed the most was when Walken was through off to his death...I think he yelled "Wow!" really loud and all I saw was him fall and go splat...even when he gets killed, Walken is still the funny man. Also starring Annabella Sciorra (Jungle Fever, Underworld (1997) and Gretchen Mol (The Thirteenth Floor, Forever Mine), both are barely in this movie and are wasted. Probably one of Abel Ferrara's worst. This was released in 1999 but shot in 1997.

Movie Review: Absolutely Awful
Summary: 1 Stars

There's really very little I can say about this film, except that it was absolutely awful in every aspect. One of the worst pieces of cinematic trash in recent years, the film is so dull as to be essentially unsalvagable. Most of the budget appears to have been blown on hiring DaFoe and Walken. The special effects are laugable. In one scene, Walken uses his ultra-advanced bioneotek PDA in a conference with his contact Mr. Cane. A camera closeup reveals that this is a PALM PILOT III with BLACK ELECTRICAL TAPE across the top to hide the lettering. Presumably, the Producer didn't want any damage to the precious $179 organizer because they planned to return it to Staples.

It also appears that the crew ran out of money, since SPOILER ALERT Walken dies after falling off of a mall balcony FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER and the second half of the film is devoted to DaFoe grimacing in psychic agony as he remembers flashbacks of IDENTICAL scenes from the first 45 minutes of the movie.

So truly bad, this movie cannot even aspire to cult status.


Movie Review: At Least Plan 9 from Outer space was comical
Summary: 1 Stars

This was the worst movie that I have ever seen! I can honestly say that because I actually watched the whole thing. Every frame of it. I wanted to Give Mr. Walken & Mr. Dafoe the chance of finishing the movie in some extrordinary way...but they didn't! I cannot say that I've seen anything by the director. this will however be the last movie he directs that I watch. the screen play was terrible, the cinematography was lousy, the acting was the worst that I've ever seen from actors with such an impressive list of credits. I'm seriously thinking about writing to the production company about getting a refund for the Dollar that I spent renting it.

PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE!!! I am begging amazon to remove this from their catologue because who ever buys this movie will be extremely upset with them and will probably never buy any thing from them again.

The only reason I gave this movie a one star rating is because they did not have a negative star designation.

THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME RANT


Movie Review: a new tool of torture...
Summary: 1 Stars

It took me 4 separate sessions to sit through this abortion. I've read Neuromancer, so I'm not ignorant of Gibson's work. I don't care if this movie is a great adaptation of the book...that just tells me that the book must be equally as boring.
The "eroticism" is cheesy, the story meanders... it's as if noone was really interested in making this. If so, it shows.
If this had been a low budget b-movie, it might have had "so-bad-it's-good" potential. Nope.
I didn't want to even give it 1 star, really, but I'll say it's for the minor nudity & the so-so performances by Walken & Dafoe.

Movie Review: Oh Abel Ferrera, even Walken couldnt help this one!
Summary: 1 Stars

Im a huge Ferrera fan, i love his dark, no light at the end of the tunnell aproach to filmaking... howver this movie is just terrible! I mean really freaking bad. Like, the worst I have ever seen. Walken couldnt help it, and neither could Dafoe.

Whether its Neo-punk or not shouldnt even matter, this movie is HORRIBLE!
