DVD Reviews of Wild At Heart

DVD Review: There's No Place Like Home...
Summary: 5 Stars

Sailor Ripley (Nicolas Cage from 8MM) is a convicted Murderer... er, I mean "manslaughterer" on parole. He decides to hit the road w/ his blazingly hot gal, Lula Pace (Laura Dern from Blue Velvet and Inland Empire), and head for California. The two young lovers are pursued by the various minions of Lula's unbalanced mother, Marietta Fortune (Diane Ladd), who only wants to kill Sailor at any cost. WILD AT HEART is really a brilliant, crackpot romantic comedy, David Lynch-style. It is loaded w/ cheezy dialogue, oddball characters, and just plain fun! Of course, there is a bit of the old ultra-violence and copious nooodity as well. Lynch proves w/ WAH that he hasn't lost the wicked sense of humour that made ERASERHEAD such a dark treasure, while giving us the perfect, wacky alternative to BLUE VELVET. Add to your Lynch library immediately...

DVD Review: Amazing and fun film
Summary: 5 Stars

Lynch created a modern fairy tale with Wild At Heart. Brilliant performances, brilliant story, funny, violent, amazing.

DVD Review: Not a Good Lynch
Summary: 1 Stars

Don't dare to compare this with any other Lynch's works, otherwise you'll be very dissapointed.
The movie spends too much time dealing with the couple's tedious and boring relationship, and simply throws in the garbage what might have been some serious good scenes among J. E. Freeman, Isabella Rosselini, Willem Dafoe and Harry Dean Stanton.
Diane Ladd delivers an annoying robotic performance, and Laura Dern and Cage just look and sound ridiculous.
Lynch made some powerful films, filled with lots of subliminar languages and unforgetable images that reminds us crazy dark dreams.
If you don't know what I'm talking about and really like a romantic drama mood, give it a try.

DVD Review: Guess I'm confused
Summary: 1 Stars

I'm noticing most of the reviews are rave. The first time I saw this movie was on TV with all of the sex and a great deal of the violence cut out. It didn't really make much sense to me at the time. I saw it in it's entirety today, and it didn't make me any less confused. I thought this entire thing was played for camp, but people are actually looking at this as a serious film. I'm not really familiar with David Lynch. Maybe that's the problem. I think it's one of the worst things I've ever seen Nicolas Cage do, and Diane Ladd and Laura Dern, where were their minds when they agreed to do this? Sorry folks.

DVD Review: A Love Bizarre
Summary: 4 Stars

You have to be in the mood to watch this. Entering the world of david Lynch is an unconventional journey into the bizarre. What I love about his films are there are certain scenes that make absolutely no sense but they resonate on your mind, a blueberry stain on your brain. This is not your everyday movie, there is no real flow, and some of the film shows it's age and David Lynch's infancy stages of filmaking. I'm sure he would have done some things differently in today's standards. It was nice to see and hear Nicolas cage doing the song "Love Me" by elvis presley? Now you don't get to see that everyday in movies. The parts I thought dragged the movie were too many unnecessary sex scenes and boring dialogue between Sailor and Talula. Enough is enough! Diane Ladd had some brilliant moments, her famous lipstick scene is unforgettable. You can't compare David Lynch with any other. He is an original and creates works of art. I wish he would come out with another film soon, we need the psychodrama in times like this.

Description of Wild At Heart

David Lynch delivers a "stunning piece of work" (Chicago Tribune) with this "flamboyantly violent and erotic" (The Village Voice) tale of love on the run ?- now remastered under Lynch?'s supervision with upgraded picture and sound. Featuring the "formidable performances" (Leonard Maltin) of Nicolas Cage, Laura Dern, Willem Dafoe, Crispin Glover and Diane Ladd, Wild at Heart is a twisted "rollercoaster ride to redemption through an American gothic heart of darkness" (Variety). If Lula (Dern) knows one thing in this world, it?'s that she?'s destined to be with her ex-con boyfriend Sailor (Cage) ?- no matter how many times her mama tries to kill him. But when she and Sailor finally hit the road in a desperate bid to find happiness, their journey plunges them into a disturbing underworld filled with sexual secrets and dangerous desires that form a terrifying "tapestry of human extremity" (Variety).

David Lynch's 1990 Wild at Heart is an utterly random and ugly experience with pockets of startling imagery and inspired set pieces. Based on a Barry Gifford novel, the film stars Nicolas Cage and Laura Dern as lovers on the lam whose relationship is tested and who meet some truly dangerous wackos (including an almost-simian Willem Dafoe). Lynch's thoughts seem to be everywhere, and he expects the audience to keep up with a story that seems more a collection of avant-garde whims than a coherent vision with the intuitive brilliance of his Blue Velvet. Cage gives one of his more chaotic performances, but then he was just reading Lynch's signposts. --Tom Keogh
