CGiii Comment
Pleasant - this is most definitely not.
Vile LA rich kids (yawn) - every character is so putrid that an instant violent death to each and all would be a blessing.
Ellis' writing is just so...samey, predictable, he really needs to lighten up and change his over-played theme.
This is Less Than Zero circa 2009.
It almost plays out like an AIDS awareness film - ever heard the phrase about bolting the stable door before the fucker bolts for the distant hills...
Jordan's direction is unworthy of comment.
A waste of some biggish names.
RIP Brad Renfro - died needlessly, aged 25. You had the whole world - pity it was in a syringe instead of your hand.
