The 70's punk setting of this movie is absolutely perfect. Punk had a do-it-yourself ethos and this movie overflows with a cheesy creativity to match. I once knew a group of artsy friends who would make their own movies for the sheer fun of it. This movie is something they could have created given enough money and some well-known actors. Some might see that as a bad thing, but I think it's pretty awesome. Liquid sky is the closest I can compare it to in terms of style and colour palette, except this movie is much more fun.
Nicole Kidman might seem an odd choice to cast as the leader of the punks, but she's a total pro and does an excellent job of it. As does the rest of the cast, for as ridiculous as the story is they really pulled me into rooting for them all.
If you are someone who enjoys recreational substances I suggest you partake before watching this, because it's pretty trippy at times.
