Flypaper Trailers

Greed, lust and fate bring together a motley collection of oddballs and lowlifes for some rather sticky situations in Hoch's twisted neo-noir debut. Three separate but interconnected stories, all set on a deceptively sunny day in California and centered around one million dollars in cash, inspire Hoch's quirky characters to commit acts both devious and depraved in an attempt to make the big score.

I admit that my expectations of this film were not very high when my friend brought it to me to watch. I had the impression this was some sort of soft porn flick, and figured the plot would be banal at best!To my surprise, however, Flypaper is one of the most enjoyable films I've seen in quite a long time. Maybe because my expectations were so low, I found myself absorbed in the plot before I realized what was happening. Everyone did a fine job with their characters, and the little twists and turns kept my interest up all the way to the end.Warning: Possible spoilers!I admit, however, to being rather disappointed by the end. Especially with two rather unresolved circumstances. I wanted to know what happened to the couple making love in the swimming pool with the snakes. I wanted to know what became of Craig S character after they pulled the knife out! Okay, but I'm just being picky. I highly recommend this for anyone who's tired of the big budget, FX loaded box office fair!

The movie itself is pretty wacky but very entertaining. You just have to ride with it and see how it goes. They just keep beating on the characters until they have nothing left to give. Its hilarious in a strange way but very slapstick towards the end. I enjoyed it!Lucy Lui sex scene of course, very nice, although she is one of the all time worst performers I have seen in the last decade she has a nice body.No one has commented on Sadie Frost! This girl puts out an aura of sexuality that is hard to match. Everything from her smallest movements to the sex scene is pretty incredible. She has the ability to switch between succubus and demon in seconds. Gorgeous!

Started out interesting enough, but then the movie completely devolved into nothing.The entire Lucy Liu storyline was dumb. It was trying real hard to be Pulp Fiction (like a LOT of stuff around this time) but fails. If you stop to think about Pulp Fiction, every segment tied in together. This one started out with a simple storyline, simple plot, then tried to add other stuff, that doesn't have anything to do with the main plot (like the before mentioned Lucy Liu part). It goes off into its own story.Still, not awful and it was enjoyable. Worth a rent, I am glad I didn't pay $9 to see it (was this even in the theatre?).

To be fair, no matter how bad a movie this is, it has a graphic sex scene with Lucy Liu. So it can't be all bad.
