Tune In Tomorrow
[whooooa]
"Accented" fans agree it is a "damn shame" there is "so little time" devoted to an "Albanian references" "theme" and they "would have stayed awake for" "such beauties" if there were any "reason" to "get RC's dander up"; ravers mention the film "improves greatly" after a character named "inflated lips" "fell asleep" when he realized "how old he was."
So many Albanian references, so little time. This movie is a treat of Keanu-omedy. It is a damn shame that I fell asleep during this movie. I really do like it. Great movie, maybe even the reason we 'Thon, but if it were, I would have stayed awake for it.
Keanu tries out a southern accent for the first time (it improves greatly in later years, particularly in beauties such as "The Gift"), opposite Barbara Hershey and with a delicious Peter Falk as Keanu's mentor. The running "Albanians are evil" theme is simply hilarious. Best Keanu moment: Keanu telling Barbara how old he was when he "lost his cherry."
Young guy wooing older woman part #2 (this time without the he-is-a-young-Robert-Urich-aged-back-23-years-by-an-angel-on-the-bus twist) this time with Peter Falk (attempting to get RC's dander up every chance he gets) along for the ride (worry not, he is not the older woman) and Barbara Hershey as the older woman (pre inflated lips). Accented Keanu (southern - we're in New Orleans) turns in a predictably good performance (despite what Jeff may say about the accented Keanu). Very funny (I haven't laughed this much since "Brotherhood!") diamond in the rough (not sure what "diamond in the rough" means, but it does sound good, doesn't it?).
