One problem is, you look at the cast and expect gold, I'm here to say DON'T. Enjoy it for what it is and you're going to have a good time.Fast Sofa is a strange watch. It's a movie that will leave some very cold towards it. A crazy cast delivers some very watchable moments and it's got very nuanced, strange performances from both Crispin Glover and an over the top Jake Busey. I recommend this on some conditions...The problem with this movie, it lacks direction. Even in a buddy road movie about two people with NO direction you need to have a somewhat coherent plot. This movie misses on that, no matter, it keeps you watching with cheap shock value, strange exchanges and funny moments. The film seems to be schitzo, but again that doesn't necessarily make it a bad film. The director could have reigned in the camera trickery as it plays out like a bad art student film at times but I found it tolerable. Interesting credits.While this film is hard to watch for some people as it tends to meander, Jake Busey and Crispin Glover make this is a must for fans of strange trashy late night films. I really at times wonder why Busey hasn't done more, he's got great timing and strange charisma. Ah well, put this one on your late night viewing list, keep your expectations low and enjoy. 7/10

I personally enjoyed this movie a lot. It doesn't have neither a sophisticated story line nor stupid cheesy elements which are so often encountered in mainstream films. The movie has a nothing-to-lose feel about it, which is very relaxing and enjoyable. I especially enjoy road-trip films (see Going To California), which makes this one very close to my heart. Also my fondness of Heavy Metal allows me to relate to the main charachter Rick. Probably the best scene in the movie is the one in which he wakes up in the morning after being beat up and drives off to kick his offenders' asses to the sounds of Ace Of Spades.

Enjoyable but totally off the beaten path film, which might be why i found it so likeable. Gets kind of old seeing the same old crap with different titles if you knw what i mean. Besides, I am a complete sucker for almost any road film. Its a bit on the rough side, language, and the sex kind of pushes the envelope, but for some reason it really brought me back to my days of living out in crazy LA.

I am not sure who okayed this movie, but i know if i were to put my money into this garbage, i would be truly angry. Maybe I just didn't get the whole, "I have a better life than i thought" message. It just didn't seem to matter. Will someone please give Crispin Glover a good role already? I mean he was good in the "Charlies Angels" movie and all, but the man is much more talented than what he is in. Jennifer Tilly (Oscar nominee for "Bullets over Broadway") and Oscar winner Eric Roberts, (yes Julia's estranged brother) what the hell were either of them thinking? Must have just been a few days of shooting i guess. Please don't waste your time with this 2 hour bore show.
