Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Buyer beware
Review: I'm glad I rented this disaster instead of buying it on DVD. And it was a FREE rental at that, so all that was wasted was my time. About the only positive thing I can think of to say about this film is that Melanie Griffith looked phenomenal (especially in those red leather pants). But that alone does not a movie make.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I was SHOCKED! Melanie Griffith is GREAT in this film!
Review: I've always been a James Woods fan, and outside of "Working Girl" and one or two of her other films, I have never cared for Melanie Griffith. If she and Woods don't get Oscar noms, then Hollywood is highter on coke than I thought. The acting is excellent! (But -- ouch! -- that needle jab to the neck grossed me out!)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: If William Faulkner was still alive . . .
Review: If William Faulkner was still alive and writing screenplays, he would have inevitably written ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE. The film is graphic and, at times, disturbing, but it also expresses a theme of redemption and hope, unlike KIDS. It is a step in the right direction for this director.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Alright
Review: It was alrigh

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Worth it for 'Woods'.
Review: It's Larry Clark's road movie with too much ...[profanity] and drugs and not enough of a story.
James Woods IS the film~(anything he's in is worth seeing)~ Melanie Griffith...yeah,yeah whatever.
Natasha Gregson Wagner looks 22 & Vincent Kartheiser looks like he's 12.
Just wade through the boring,corny parts & watch it for Woods' fine performance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Woods and Griffith are dynamite!
Review: James Woods is always great and this is probably Melanie Griffith's best role since, well, "Paradise." But this is NOT a sequel to that. Together they are dynamite, with chemistry so explosive and dangerous, it makes you cringe sometimes. A terrific sound track adds to the seedy, ugly underside of four druggies on a road trip to nowhere. As someone said below: NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH. But definitely for people who appreciate great acting.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: gritty crime drama
Review: Larry Clark has done it again, another gritty street drama. He has quite the knack for this type of material, considering he directed KIDS and BULLY, both of which had ratings problems. The material is relatively familiar, but done extremely well. Performances by Melanie Griffith, James Woods and a surprising cameo by Lou Diamond Phillips are what keep this film afloat. Has some graphic sex and violence. The director's cut runs a whopping 4 minutes longer and the only difference is a 4 minute sex scene which is pretty racy but doesn't add much to the overall film either version works. The dvd has a music video and dir. commentary on the dir. cut side.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: NOT FOR WUSSES OR PRUDES!
Review: Melanie Griffith and James Woods are OUTSTANDING! It's not a "pretty" picture -- very down and unrelenting -- but it is so well acted and doesn't pull any punches. I recommend this film highly for a very select audience who like their dramas DARK and STRONG.

Rating: 4 stars
