88As much fun as anything director/co-writer Jane Campion has ever filmed. Holy Smoke lets it all hang out.
-
80What transpires is so rich that I've seen this movie three times. The joy of being involved with two wholly truthful (if colorfully fucked up) characters is that exhilarating.
-
60It's not a movie you could call dispassionate, however aimless and unfocused. It's a Molotov cocktail tossed in several directions at once.
-
38It lurches ineptly from lame comedy to hokey melodrama.
