Loser

This anti-American Pie, a relatively wholesome teen romance about down-on-their-luck college students in New York City, is so dull that it had me longing for
another Road Trip. Jason Biggs and Mena Suvari star as humdrum lovers-to-be with humdrum
problems standing in their way. Writer-director Amy Heckerling has made movies that are far better (Clueless, Fast Times at Ridgemont High) and far worse (the Look Who’s Talking pictures). This one lies blandly in between.

Two Minutes Late (1952)

Drama Rated NR

“… a scrappy, neo-realist tale of societal scrounging that’s paused by poetic moments of slow cinema.”
