DVD Review "ST JOHN OF LAS VEGAS" Score C+ 76%

What starts out as an interesting independent movie fades and by the end we are left with an unsatisfying conclusion. Buscimi does his best Buscimi in this one. There are little clever things going on and when we find out the reveal its not that great. I think that the writer and director could have found more compelling ways to wrap this initial story up into a more interesting finish. The supporting characters don't seem really flushed out and they tend to seem a little flat which makes our lead seem rather flat as well. His flaws and his quirks are disipated and ultimately we lose any thing or one to care about in this film
