Watch A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon For Free

hyped garbage

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Just absolutely godawful- so so completely garbage. Lets start at the top, its called A Night in The Life of Jimmy Reardon, but it takes place over the course of several months, maybe the director just liked the sound of the title rather than its accuracy. Next, its a movie about a miserable "ladies-man" who deceives friends, lovers and family members for small cowardly reasons. The filmmaker celebrates these meaningless deceptions, the filmmaker celebrates his heartless soulless Don Juan, its so insane and confusing that it left this reviewer asking this question "hey what the hell is this crap?" I mean who the hell is this movie for? What sort of awful hate filled rapist wants to watch this? Jimmy Reardon is a character devoid of kindness and compassion, less man and more entirely a creature, a creature that does not interact with fellow humans than so much stalk them in a predatory manner. DESTROY THIS MOVIE!

C'mon y'all, get off your holy horse! This is a great flick! Finally, a main character I can relate to. He's juggling way too many women, totally out of control with lust and obsessed with sex, too smooth for his own good, and he can't seem to do the right thing even if he wanted to. That's the way life is! I can't relate to all those sappy romantic men in movies who fall in love with one girl and ignore the rest. This guy is a victim of his own libido, as are lots of us guys. Finally, a movie for us! And the ending is great how it comes back to his father. This is the central conflict in the whole movie, his relationship with his father.His father wants him to be better than he was, but in the end, he is a chip off the old block. He is not romantic and honest and kind. He is manipulative and seductive and selfish. He is a jerk, but a likable one. River Phoenix does a great job and a young Matthew Perry is good too. It's nice to see his pre-Friends work and see that he can actually act.I wish there were more movies like this. If not, I'll write one myself.

River must have been asleep when he read this script. A young actor known for choosing meaty, meaningful roles, in this instance, he must have been going for cheap publicity. Well, I don't think he made many fans with this one. I'm not even sure what movie this compares to. It went on too long and was hardly worth watching. On a personal note. I will always miss River. He was the best young actor of his generation. And the business of movie making has not been the same without him. He could have reached the top. Goodbye again, young friend.

Something truly rare in film: a disaster on every level. River Phoenix takes himself way too seriously in the title role of a hipster-doofus poet on the night everyone supposedly discovers what a genius he is. It's a film chock full of bad acting, bad writing, bad staging, and the most asinine, sanctimonious poetry ever heard. It makes Mike Myers' parody in So I Married an Axe Murderer sound like William Shakespeare. Of course, since River and Ione Skye are so good-looking, we're supposed to take them seriously. To paraphrase Heathers, it's teen-angst you-know-what. Don't fall for it. I admonish you all to leave in the 59-cent bin of your local video store where it belongs.
