Summer of Sam (1999)
2/10
Spike lost his way
27 September 2022
Meaningless meandering scenes that go nowhere and then onto the next one - the camera follows the character like a sick puppy, then some sex scenes.

Add some stereotypical Italian Americans in vests driving muscle cars and shouting at each other and there you have it - end credits. A bizarre, boring movie with the Son of Sam merely in the background occasionally shooting people.

Watch the film as a curiosity with the sound down whilst playing with your phone. And ask yourself, why is Adrian Brody imitating an English punk, putting on a weird English accent, what is the relevance? And do all Italian families shout at each other? And why have the Son of Sam even in the film?
