December 9, 20214 yr This was a fun movie to watch. It’s hard to adequately describe how cool it was. Bradley Cooper and Sean Penn both made me laugh as did Tom Waits. Cooper Hoffman was great in this in my opinion. His dad would have been proud. Alana Haim also was fun to watch. Those two had good chemistry.

Wait I thought it was Ron Johnson who put on Kashmir while they were driving to the dugout?

December 9, 20214 yr it's one thing to be wrong, but to be wrong three times Nope, Rat definitely played Kashmir - in his sister's car, on the way to the restaurant with Stacy on their first date.
December 27, 20213 yr Saw it last night. Man I wanted it to be great. The acting was damn good though.
December 27, 20213 yr I thought it was fun. All the acting was tits. Specially the old woman talent scout/agent ”youre a goddamn fighter” lol
December 30, 20213 yr Snuck away from work today for a matinee. Thought it was great. As others have said, the acting was great, particularly when you consider the inexperience of the two leads.
January 3, 20223 yr I very much enjoyed the general vibe of the movie and the performances were great but it was tough to get past the creepiness of the age gap

Because when I see a big age gap now it reminds me of something he would cast and it takes away from things.
January 9, 20223 yr Really good. Stellar acting and chemistry from hoffman and haim. Cooper and Penns roles seemed shoehorned in a bit.
January 18, 20223 yr Saw it today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Pretty offbeat, but unique and funny. The two leads were great together and I am a big fan of her disdain for bras.

April 6, 20223 yr Really enjoyed it but should be renamed The Attempted Escape of Alana Haim’s Nipples.
May 12, 20223 yr Caught this on a plane this week. Not a PTA aficionado, but probably makes more sense in the context of his canon. I couldn't really track with Haim as this massive beauty that captured the eye of every man that saw her. Licorice Pizza : Fast Times :: Licorice Pizza : Tower Records. I probably would have enjoyed it more a year ago, and it didn't feel like we were heading warp speed into the late 70s.
May 29, 20223 yr I thought this was going to be a "normal" PTA but it wasn't, which was great. Hoffman is terrific. Haim was good. Like all the punch drunk love sisters rolled into one. Holy shit, the dude with the Japanese wives scenes... I don't know where it ranks with his others but I was pretty impressed. Unrelated: Reminded me of how the Doors have always tripped over their own dicks. Peace Frog is the greatest fucking song. I mean, 50% of Peace Frog is the greatest fucking song.
June 1, 20223 yr Watched it on a plane and fucking loved it. Really funny and really well acted. The whole Bradley Cooper sequence killed me from beginning to end. Alana Haim is distractingly unusual looking but she can pull off cute and sexy. I liked that the whole family was in it. I just saw them in concert a couple weeks ago and they were great. I want an Este Haim movie.
August 16Aug 16 From what I’ve gathered, people didn’t like this movie because Alana Haim looks like Gollum. Good actress, very charismatic, just not pretty. And that’s OK. She’s a successful musician and probably doesn’t care. Perhaps John Michael Higgins’ funniest role. The ad agency scene killed me

August 16Aug 16 No, Alana Haim is not some drop-dead gorgeous beauty. But, damn if she isn't sexy as hell.
