If watching people do drugs and violence is your thing, than this film is worth a look. But besides that there isn't much positive stuff I can say about this film, it was dull for the most part and not very interesting to watch. There isn't much to say about the acting in this movie either, except the fact that it's too forced but decent. When I first read how Val Kilmer is going to play John Holmes, I thought the plot is going to be about John Holmes and his porn star days. But that isn't the case for this movie, but how the story takes place after he falls from porn stardom. And revolves around a robbery, where the robbers steal from a big shot gangster boss. Now the story is told differently by different people and while this is going on, I was trying to figure out who told the truth and who told the lies. Which worked alright for a movie like this. This is a pretty much a dull movie, but on a positive note although it starts off a pretty dull movie. After about half way through the film starts to get a tad bit interesting, not a lot but slightly. Anyways the robbery and murders was never solved but the movie gives hints on what might have went down. Val Kilmer acting was pretty good, but from what I know his resemblance and how the real John Holmes acted like is inaccurate. Plus you just don't give a crap about any of the characters in this movie, most of them are just repulsive junkies. This movie isn't really about porn or drugs but the criminal activities that surround it. It's okay movie overall, but not a very satisfying one either.
