I watched this film on Amazon Prime where its genres are listed as "comedy, drama", which does such a huge disservice to what this film is.
It is in no way a comedy at all so get that idea out of your head before you watch this film. In reality it is a dark crime drama which has an incredible tone and vibe to it.
At times tone and vibe are favoured over plot and storytelling, but having digested this film a bit I don't think I mind. There were some wildly good visuals in this film and the direction from Harmony Korine was top notch.
I loved the performances from all of the cast. Franco's character was very out there but it worked in the context of the film.
A wildly underrated film which was probably hampered by the fact that people were expecting a frat bro comedy, when in actuality this is a much more elevated and stylish affair.
