Off to a good start, Kalifornia was succeeding with winning performances by Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis.
Disturbingly, David Duchovny was uttering many over-the-top macabre lines, but I was okay with it as long as
the film would go somewhere. About one hour later, a full realization was made that it was just not working out.
Then, Kalifornia began to crawl to a slow death before falling apart before my eyes. All I can say is
the premise had promise.
During one scene in Nevada, when David Duchovny's character drove the truck before flipping over, it should've
made a big mess. Instead, I'm taken to the next day. Why bother going for the killer when the cops should be
called in because they're more equipped to handle the matter?
All in all, Kalifornia is disappointing.
