...well if you ask me the entire world is warped and strange in this typical early Tim Burton film featuring a kinda American Mr. Bean years before the Rowan Atkinson character ever surfaced.
Sure, sure, Pee-wee Herman is the most kiddish, most strangely living individual in this world, but everybody else has got their own kinks and ticks just in different ways. It's absolutely not like the case of Bean where only the star is a misfit.
This movie is one of those i feel of which if i had been a fan as a kid, now i would discover how not so good it really is. It's a bunch of almost dream like nonsense woven together. The fantastical happenings don't come up because Herman's regular clockwork life-style got messed up by his bike being stolen, he just steps outside his street, and boom: ghost riders, menacingly friendly convicts broken out of jail, girls' mute grunt boyfriends pumped up from misheard strangely suggestive sexual innuendo, biker gangs mesmerized by silly dance numbers...
Whatever, a mess of a silly fun dreamy road movie. Why not... but i did not feel it was punchy enough for a 7.0... for me 7 is the entry level to REALLY good movies.
Very likable... somehow. But not that good. Harmless kids movie (again, sexy innuendo for adults aside), i was expecting a sort of Bill & Ted heart and cool, but i just found heart.
