Watch this movie for its imagination, not its logic.

fresh:
Silly, sick and surreal, it's a triumph of style over message or entertainment value.

rotten:
From time to time during the 99-minute running time, I kept thinking of those old Off Off Broadway impositions on wriggly audiences -- or was it just me who was the transplanted Village square trapped among all the hipsters?

rotten:
Provocative title, provocative premise, provocative direction, routine movie.
