The Slums of Beverly Hillsmade in 1998
rated R
Jesse: Hmm...what to say about this movie. It's very funny, but it makes me uncomfortable at the same time. This is a movie that I would be embarassed to watch with anyone but Justin; not knowing how different people would react to said humor. But, the main character, Vivian Abromowitz's, relationship with the drug-dealing Eliot Arenson is hilarious. And it makes me really appreciate that my family doesn't make incredibly inappropriate comments about my breasts. So, lastly, if you love Marisa Tomei like I do, it's a good one to catch. ***
Justin: This is one of those movies that I have a hard time properly conveying my opinion. It is really funny, the writing is good, the acting is good, and it's not slow, so I feel like I should like this movie more than I do. I can't quite put my finger on it....but with all that nothing being said, it is really funny, Marisa Tomei and Alan Arkin are a great comedy team. I do especially love how they tackle taboo issues, especially for a movie set in the '70's. Overall, funny but not a lot of replay value. ***
