| Wicked little flick! The brooding, oh so dying to please LeGros will stop at nothing to ensure Tierney's love and happiness. He tragically succeeds, she humbly bleeds. This clever far-out film manages to capture the feel, look, and flavor of the 70s better than any I have seen since the 70s. If you are a carnivore you will sink your teeth into yhis film and if you are a vegetarian you will find it righteous. It is a feast filled with multiple layers of wit. Bon Appetite! |

Surely Shakespeare would have envisioned his MACBETH as set in the 1970's cutthroat fast-food world -- had such a world existed in his time. No? Well, just in case, we have this very odd, hard-to-define, occasionally hilarious, just as occasionally flat, comedy with the MacBeths a couple of fast food employees in rural Pennsylvania, who have more ambitious plans than their boss knows what to do with. It's great to see the underrated LeGros and Tierney finally given some lead time, but they don't always seem to know what to do as the tone and pacing shifts. Best of all is Christopher Walken as the detective MacDuff -- he clearly had a ball and it shows. There are quite a few moments of inspired, deadpan black comedy making this definitely worth a rental -- the second half is better than the first so stick with it; once Walken appears, the story takes off. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want fries with that.
