An Exercise In Nonsense

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

At the beginning of the info page for this movie on IMDb, it said that there was no plot synopsis for this movie. I honestly thought that it was a review of the movie, and whole-heartedly agreed with it. If VH1 and Blender magazine were to follow up their list of the most awesomely bad songs ever with an identical list for movies, this would top at number one. The movie was like a bad party. It was boring, dull, and when the last guest arrives (in this case, what little plot there was), everyone had already left. In normal movies about performers, we find out about the main character's dark past BEFORE The END OF THE MOVIE!!!! The dialogue is like having to make awkward chit-chat with a friend of a friend of a friend while everyone you know is in the restroom. Then, it's as if the entire plot that should have been happening in the rest of the movie all occurs in a monologue that seems to last 12 hours. Hey, here's a little information. No real performers stop their show when a technical difficulty hits AND TELL THEIR FREAKIN" ENTIRE LIFE STORY!!! There is a quick scene with some woman sucking on another woman's nipple while the monologue is going on. i suppose that this serves as a cup of coffee for this long road trip of a monologue that nobody cares about. I suppose the job of a movie is to show us what it's like as certain characters, and what better way to put you in the heads of these bored nightclub customers than to have a monologue drag on like that. I am a huge Bruce Campbell fan, and when a movie drags so long that i can't even find him in the film, it must suck. I would buy this movie only so I can play Mystery Science Theatre 3000 with my friends while watching it.

This was One of the worst movies I'v e ever seen. There were a few interesting characters but most of them made no sense to me. First was the odd dude in the coffee shop? What was that all about? He was always looking in the napkin dispenser. Then there was the old dude security guard. I guess he was one of the few believable characters in the film and he's done some other good work. Unfortunately, his part was far too small. OK, then there was Doc's club. Now this could have been played a lot more. The talent was rough. I personally enjoyed the ventriloquist. He was a metaphor for this film : HE SUCKED. About the only thing I liked were the two old ladies watching the show at Docs' They were cute, and I suspect related to the director or maybe the blue-haired investors that forked over the dough for this film and got a cameo. Who knew they would be the two best actors in this film! I also want to give a Golden Globe nomination to the rabbit that bit the magicians finger. He was really in character. Obviously, he is a star and probably regrets appearing in this stinker

I just loved this bittersweet film about a down-on-his-luck Elvis impersonator who plans his big comeback at a small-time seedy Hollywood night club.The film has a supporting cast of equally touching characters who are clearly just barely existing on the fridges of the Hollywood show business community.Yet despite this sad state of existence there is a inner dignity to Eddie Presley and the other characters that is touching and wonderfully uplifting.If you like movies about show business and especially that of show business in Hollywood, then this film is definitely worth a look.

A minor masterpiece of borderline genius. Duane Whitaker's play comes to cinematic fulfillment in EDDIE PRESLEY, a paegn to Hollywood Bottom Feeders. Loaded with quiet power and insight, EP is the story of a Presely impersonator with a wounded psyche, unflinching in his quest to keep the King's spirit alive. He bets it all on one night of glory, a headlining spot at dingy Tinseltown dive. He ends up losing his girlfriend, his job, his chance, but not his pride, as he engages in a cathartic Lennybruce-esque confession that celebrates the poetry of the angles while exorcising his own demons. A must for anyone whoever spit in the face of certain demise.
