Southland Tales
Set in a near-future Los Angeles on July 4, 2008, a city teetering on the edge of social upheaval, economic collapse, and environmental peril. Boxer Santaros, a celebrated action star, awakens with amnesia, his memories erased. His fate becomes entangled with Krysta Now, an adult-film icon pursuing her own reality-TV venture, and Ronald Taverner, a Hermosa Beach police officer who holds the key to a vast conspiracy.

Saw this one many years ago and really didn't care much for it. Watching it again, now the 'Cannes Cut', I absolutely... hated it. A bit of a shame since I love Donnie Darko (the director's cut especially) and where that one managed to blend social commentary with end-of-the world science fiction pretty well, this one did not. In fact, it was a real mess. However the biggest issue, beyond being downright boring at times, where I liked the characters in Donnie Darko, here I really couldn't care less. I would compare Richard Kelly to someone like M. Night Shyamalan, but least he had a couple solid films after The Sixth Sense to hang his hat on, Kelley's films following Donnie Darko (including his third film, The Box), were just nonsensical pretentious messes. **1.5/5**
