Very sordid and unexpectedly dull; adults only.

The main interest here is the acting, which is, by turns, entertaining or just entertainingly bad, with lots of grungy seriousness and Method-trained twitching, but also some moments of real gusto.

A film whose effects are as hard to wash away as blood.

Rarely has so much of so little consequence been so closely examined.
October 17, 2003
Overblown, overheated, overdirected, overacted, overlong and over here, in the local bijoux.

Unwarrantedly interested in B-list celebrity-gone-to-seed.

*Violent and blaring ... a vibrant bit of tabloid trash infotainment, a guilty pleasure for those with a taste for bittersweet candy.

Unpleasant to view but ultimately satisfying.

Val Kilmer ("The Salton Sea") fails to manifest the eccentric character of notorious porn legend Johnny "Wadd" Holmes in this artful but unbalanced dramatization of the gruesome 1981 Laurel Canyon murders that Holmes was implicated in committing.

Sometimes Wonderland does make you wonder why you're wasting your time with these losers. But there's also a lot here that stays with you.

Not quite the second coming of Boogie Nights.
