Great Film overall
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
You're looking for a job, spend time with your cool friends playing video games, hooking up with women just after a long relationship breakup. I mean theses are kinds of things a 20-something guy typically does and this movie explains this perfectly. I loved the characters in this film especially Treant(VV) on how he smoothly scores women while his friend Mike struggles after a breakup. Some scenes are hilarious and some are cool to watch. The Dialogues are creative and dude-like :) I recommend this movie to any 20-something guy to watch for fun, entertainment and some insights in the world of dating 8/10 from me :D
My favourite feel good movie, young Vince oozes with style and confidence, a must watch! The movie is about a young Jon Favreau who plays a struggling stand-up, who has just split up with his girlfriend and his friends encourage him to get back out there and chat up new young ladies. The plot is loosely based on Jon Favreau's life and Favreau uses his own apartment in the filming of this low budget indie movie. Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn had previously met on the set of Rudy and after they cemented a good friendship together Vince got the part co-staring next to Favreau. This in my opinion is still Vince Vaughn's finest performance as he shows off all his traits: confident, cheeky and swagger in his way with the ladies. The movie is not just about Jon Favreau's character (Mikey) bouncing back from his recent relationship but it's equally about the power of friendship.
Mike (Jon Favreau) is suffering from the end of his six year relationship. He obsessively waits for her phone call as he tries to make it as a comedian. His friend Rob (Ron Livingston) from back east is struggling to get into acting. Trent (Vince Vaughn) is his talkative friend with the infamous words "Vegas Baby". The gang of friends try to pick up Babies and convince Mike that he's Money.Vince Vaughn is giving a way over the top performance. Jon Favreau's character is a little sad and pathetic. Their combo is amusing until it becomes annoying. What sold me is the scene with the phone calls. The first three calls are amusing. Then the movie goes for broke and gets to another level. There is pathetic and then there is really funny pathetic. As a writer, Jon has created a memorable character with Vince. It's the second movie for director Doug Liman and pulls it all together.
I finally have gotten around to watching Swingers and I believe this film will connect with all younger males such as myself. This film is about as authentic as you'll get when it comes to Hollywood and real life. I just felt like I was involved in this movie as if it was my life. The dialog is so real and believable. This indie film is funny and heartfelt as it is about bromances and these men finding their way in life.Doug Liman's film is about two friends named Trent and Mike who like to party it up in Hollywood. Mike is a wannabe actor who is coming off a six-year relationship and Trent is his friend who wants him to move on and succeed in life.This is the film that made Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn household names. I never seen Favreau as that big superstar, but he has the ability as evident by this film. He certainly is capable of an actor as he is a director. Vince Vaughn is funny and very talkative. His catchphrase involving the use of money as an adjective deserves some props even if it does get annoying after awhile.Overall, Swingers is a great comedy that has great themes of young people trying to find their way in life. It's very authentic thanks to a realistic screenplay. There are many laugh-out-loud moments and one that will hold true to your heart. For the kind of film it is, I couldn't help but love it. I rate this film 9/10.
