Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater
Perfect cast and a good story
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
I thought this was an excellent film and I was surprised to find out how little-known it is. What's best about this movie is that it can be extremely disturbing and yet very believable at the same time. It shows what two minds are capable of when they become obsessed with each other. I would also have to say that there was nothing sexual about the girls relationship (as hinted at in the plot keywords). They just had an intense understanding of each other which allowed them to get dangerously close, but not sexual. Excellent acting, intense drama, I gave it an 8/10.
This chilling disturbing and in some ways almost funny film deserves 9/10. The color days were used to show how back in the past how Hillary and Bonnie had so much ......well "Fun" in the past hanging out. And The black and white film used it present time how the "fun" they had brought them into trouble. And also being seperated from one another. I saw this movie late one night on Sundance. It had wonderful acting. I loved it and yet was disturbed by it at the same time.Hillary had already told about how she was abused as a kid. And Bonnie was kinda Hyper Active Disorder.Well you know what they say "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!"Why did I not give it a 10/10. I loved everything except....where was the ending? If what i saw was the ending I didnt like it. Give it more UMTH! Than .....whoops cant tell! I say see this movie whenever you get a chance. But you HAVE to see it begining to end. Or else youll miss out on the fun!
Fun is part of the Film Festival Rotterdam 1999. It was shown on TV to promote the festival.While zapping I got to see the last 90 minutes, and I found it absolutely gripping. The way Renee Humphrey (Hillary) and Alicia Witt (Bonny) played was refreshingly direct and convincing.The movie makes you think, and after a while the need arises to ask yourself the question, `could this have happened to me?' And I found only one answer: I could have been Hillary.
I really enjoyed this movie for a multitude of reasons. The best reason for watching this movie is the fact that it raises so many questions. After I saw it for the first time I wanted to watch it again, because I wanted to try to better understand the characters. I wanted to know why, and also why not.I also thought the acting done by René Humphrey and Alicia Witt was phenomenal. These two really made the roles believable, one thinks that the characters are real. I was truly impressed.Finally I liked the use of black & white, and colour. It helped me see how the characters felt, especially at the end. on a scale of 1(bad) to 10(good), I give it a 15.
