Devin Faraci's review from CHUD.com. Do not read if you still want to cling to your expectations that this might be good.

^oohh -- new Alizee. Thank you.
This is the only time I'll do a three line review from now on:
If you are a fan of his (B.E.E.'s work) do not see this. I am and did and was fantastically disappointed.
If you don't know who he is, just imagine this movie is a Rated R version of 'the hills' as directed by a ingmar bergman wannabe
Brad Renfro is the best part of this film
On the new Bret Easton Ellis Podcast (http://podcastone.com/Bret-Easton-Ellis-Podcast) him and Nicholas Jarecki talk about why this turned into a steaming pile of shit. Very interesting conversation, a must listen for basically anyone who's ever wanted to make a movie
I worked on it, it was a hot mess. I worked for Marco Weber as his assistant (one of two), first on Fireflies in the Garden then this.
