Oliver Stone is known for various serious and/or controversial films that have a certain audience, while others are not big fans. But, this film is not of that quality. This bit of triviality seems more of a lark. It was destined for late night viewings and video rentals. All the same, I think it can be said to be more enjoyable than some (who knows? maybe all) of those other "message" movies. And, conspiracy free.
The movie concerns Sean Penn as a loser who has the unfortunate fate of winding up in some hick town where, to paraphrase him, everyone seems crazy. A major part of all this is a woman played by Jennifer Lopez, showing her ability to have some fun, again better than many of her later more serious roles. I don't remember all the details -- don't even recall Claire Danes had a bit role in the thing.
Still, I remember having a lot of fun. Thus, my summary.
