    In Passion Play, you get Mickey Rourke's best Clayface impression, Megan Fox with wings, The Room-style rooftop green screens, Bill Murray as a gangster, Chuck Liddell as a thug, desert circus freaks, and STILL the movie is a total fucking bore.

    Just an awful, awful, awful, awful movie.

    Elämä potkii jazz-muusikkoa kupoliin. Pientä piristystä tuo outolintu, jolla on kivat tissit.

    Nyt ei taas ihan auennut.

    Holy fuck.

    The most impressive thing about this film is the fact that they made it. Someone read this script and was like, "Yep, we're gonna fucking make this!"

    That is dedication.

    People have rated this 3.5 stars and higher! I'm so pleased that some people have the audacity to take this seriously and enjoy it. Bravo!

    The story is fucking ludicrous. Not like awesome ludicrous like Leon: The Professional or Hot Fuzz (first two off the top of my head), but like terribly fucking horrible and ridiculous. Nothing is explained and nothing makes sense. The CGI is weak as hell. The title has zero relation to the film. I just couldn't take this seriously. It's like a Funny Or…

    Ziniet ko? Man nav ne jausmas ko par šo saka pasaules kino varenie un, principā arī tas pie kājas, bet šis man reāli patika. Pat vairāk, es pat atļaušos teikt ka te tādas Vima Vendersa filmu sajūtas radās. Kaut kas no "Miljons dolāru hoteļa", kaut kas no "Wings Of Desire". Tā noskaņa, tā mūzika un pats stāsts man tā vien lika ik pa brīdim pārliecināties, ka režisors tiešām NAV Venders, bet gan ne pārāk gudro filmu režisors Mičs Glazers. Nē, patiešām ir daudz labāk nekā pirmajā mirklī var likties...

    Tātad aktieri. Mikijs Rurks- šķiet komentārus neprasa un visās savās pēdējās filmās ir pilnīgi vienāds. Liekas ka pat tajās pašās drēbēs filmējās. Bils Murejs arī komentārus neprasa, viņš te tāds elegantais…

    Wow. Where do I start with PASSION PLAY?

    I remember hearing about this movie for a long time. It got publicity for some leaked on-set photos of Megan Fox back when any photos of Megan Fox were a big deal. It was also one of Mickey Rourke’s first lead roles after his Oscar-nominated performance in The Wrestler. Finally, Bill Murray, a guy who is more particular about his career than most, was the third lead.

    It seemed to have all of the right pieces in place to be, worst-case-scenario, interesting B-level nonsense.

    Instead, this thing is Buzz’s cinematic girlfriend. Woof!

    The premise is absurd, which is fine. Rourke plays a trumpet player who narrowly escapes a desert execution and happens…

    Review by Justin Bozung ★★★½

    Dark and meditative love story with Rourke as a musician/junkie who rescues a woman with angel wings from a freak show and sells her off to a crime boss to save his own life only to fight to get her back again.

    Watched this a couple of days ago and remember virtually nothing about it. Megan fox was pretty and she had wings. Utter crap though.
