Hilarious

The movie's completely offbeat, illogical and irreverent theme is hilarious. Many serious critics could not appreciate the humour of this film, so the only real way to judge it is to see it for yourself. We follow 4 central characters whose lives are rundown and pathetic, yet they all live happily and ignorantly. We follow the story of a young girl who has stolen cocaine from criminals, and a crooked jobless young man who; they decide to get married for some god unknown reason. At the same time we follow a middle aged bar owner, of the decrepit 'Boomerang'. The rest of the movie jumps from one non sensible joke to the next all in hilarious fashion. The end of the movie results in the ultimate destruction of the bar, Boomerang. Hilarious - 10/10
