Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

maddirose-42276 This is a fantastic and hilarious movie, if you don't think so you're probably not very smart.

ROBERT SHACKELFORD This movie is great. It's full of stars, many before their prime. Three Dog Night allover the soundtrack. Sukie and the diner owner's sister from the Gilmore Girls pops up for a moment. The girl from Studio 54. Ben Affleck's little brother. Bette Midler who was the queen of the beloved plays a disgusting person. Danny DeVitto who normally plays disgusting is a pretty good dude. The support cast is packed full of recognizable character actors. The story is compelling. The plot is convoluted, filled with flashbacks. Yugos everywhere. The product placement is so blatant its funny in and of itself. I really appreciate how thy dare to make most of the Characters such terrible people.

[email protected] I can't understand how anyone can't find at least one redeeming quality to this movie, I think it is HILARIOUS, but maybe it's because I also live in New York, though have never driven a Yugo, but that's not the point either, LOL....you have to accept this film for what it is and was intended to be; an incredulously deep, dark comedy, in the style of the classic 'noir' only with a satirical edge and in the daytime. One has to sympathize with Sheriff Rash, wait, no, no, he's not actually a sheriff, LOL....the witty, yet gruff and banal yet exaggerated repartee, no...banter, is the element that makes this film a true comedy classic, I would equate the likes of this comedy with that of "The Birdcage", an incredulous, somewhat exasperating take on normal everyday life and the people that help to convolute it, LOL.....I love you Mona Dearly...but wouldn't miss you too terribly, LOL...see it, only have your tongue in your cheek! EXCELLENT!

jill arms This movie is exceptional! I have seen it more than a hundred times, maybe 2... I own it. As a matter of fact..... I JUST WATCHED IT. Everyday I look at my DVD's and say...."what do I wanna watch?" Then I say, Jill... just put in Drowning Mona, then I say, well, it is a good movie. It's the scenery and the whole ambiance of the place they taped the movie in that rocks. If you watch it with the commentary on you'll see that even though the movie's supposed to be in New York state, its filmed in Cali. Also, it has very lush scenery and lots of greens. I like that. It's one of those films you can put on for a specific feeling... I also like how They give different references to how Jeff lost his hand. That's a highlight for me. Go watch this f-ing movie, now!
