CGiii Comment

Not to be confused with the Daniel Radcliffe film - with the same name.

Before Alexander Skarsgard hit the big time with True Blood.

And, what seems to be the beginning and end to Larson's feature film career. It's not too difficult to see why...uneven, erratic, disjointed and punctuated with moments of unacceptable (directorial) awkwardness.

Wilson's performance is as unconvincing as Skarsgard's beefed-up, monolithic transsexual...nothing gels, it's all so over-stated...and, ultimately, irritating.

The(ir) Blurb...

A desperate young writer is lured on a wild ride through the desert by a mysterious woman in this darkly comic take on the all-American road trip. Along the way they cross paths with a hapless mobster, a 6 foot transvestite and a lovesick housewife, all on the way to their celebrity TV shrink in Las Vegas... Things quickly spiral out of control into a dangerous cat-and-mouse game... a writer's frantic search for inspiration becomes intertwined with a motley crew of quirky characters seeking love and adventure at any cost.
