I went to see this film in the local cinema, quite late after working a 10 hour shift at my supermarket to give me some spare change when I was back at University. And boy, I was not expecting what I got from Boogie Nights.
The first thing that grabs you about this film is its gritty, documentative style of direction and acting. Mark Walhberg is fantastic, especially in the scene with his mother where he really shows what a talented actor he can be. In fact, all of the actors do a fine job of pulling off this realistic, sometimes humorous, but overwhemlingly gripping film.
Afterwards, you won't even remember seeing Heather Graham naked bar her rollerskates... :-)
