Watch S.F.W. For Free

Very best movie i ever watch

Sorry, this movie sucks

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

I really love this movie. Dorff is way cool and the soundtrack just rocks your face off. SFW is really more than that, because it really takes the mickey out of news, media and reality TV, and it's cool to think that this came out way before the reality TV craze hit all our channels. Heaps of good acting from the cast, and lots of cool tunes and a really good message in this movie. I don't know why more people haven't seen it but if you love cool 90's movies with awesome soundtracks like Soundgarden, Manson and GWAR , then this is a movie you should really check out! Nine out of Ten, would be more but I was bummed the DVD had no features.

The only reason I checked out this movie is because in the credits it states that China Kantner is in this movie. She might have been, but I didn't see her. I loved her in a movie called "The Stoned Age" (1994), so I wanted to see her again. She might have had a very very small role, but it wasn't worth my time watching this movie for a blink. I have never been a Reese Witherspoon fan, but I love Renee Zellweger and I rented "Dazed and Confused" (1993) just to see her, but just like this movie, I was disappointed to find out that she is only in it for a moment. I don't think they should list actors in the credits unless they have prominent roles, and if they do, then maybe the word "bit part" should be next to their names.

Yet Another Wasted Night watching some indulgent auteur's desperate attempt at creating a cult film. Jefrey Levy is one director to avoid. SFW is ineptly directed without any sense of camera position and far too much self consciousness. Promising lead actor Stephen Dorff should have changed his agent...in 1994 and I am writing this in 2005. Where has he gone? where is his career? His hilarious comment that he turned down the Jack Dawson role in TITANIC because he did not want to be remembered as 'the guy in the boat picture" is so Derek Zoolander in it's stupidity and lack of awareness one can only come to the sad realisation that maybe SFW is the peak of his career. Yecch. SFW is so apt a title in what is apparently supposed to be a merciless skewering of the media - all presented badly and clumsily by a hack TV director. Any film maker who actually wants Jake Busey in his film really does not have a clue as to what he is doing. Reese Witherspoon is completely wasted and the obviousness of Levy's cult wannabe heavy handedness is evident throughout. SFW is basically a terrible film. If John Waters had made it - and he would have made a better job of it, and without the ridiculous incessant swearing it would have been successful because Waters understands irony. Annoyingly he did make a film with Dorff: CECIL B DEMENTED in 1999 which was great until the last reel when it all fell over. He should have made SFW instead, As for Stephen Dorff's career, well I guess he can re emerge, Rocky-like and make a film called THE POWER OF TWO a sequel to the only intelligent film he has yet made. Otherwise like the career of both Dorf and Levy, SFW indeed.

It is one thing for a film to merely be bad, it is quite another for it to insult your intelligence. The latter happened to me in this non-attempt at filmmaking. How the likes of Stephen Dorff and Reese Witherspoon (one of my all time favorite actresses) got messed up in this I'll never know, but I hope they fired their managers afterward. This is, quite possibly, the single worst movie I have ever seen (Roger Ebert agrees!). Every character seems to be a ripoff of some celebrity who probably had the common sense to steer clear of this movie. Every situation seems entirely implausible. What's more, the writer seems to have a vocabulary that extends to only the three words in the title (you figure it out). This was a painful movie to watch, not because of it's depth, but because it is so inexcusably horrible. It may be the first time in my life that I actually felt sorry for the actors, who really were at the mercy of this doomed screenplay. I so not buy for one minute the notion that this movie may simply have been "too deep" to appreciate. Please, I do not need to be insulted again. Reese, I still think you are on top of your game, and this was ten years ago during your indie phase, so I don't hold you accountable, just please don't let it happen again.
