Very Bad Things - Very Interesting film.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 18, 2011

Verified Purchase

I have to say that overall this movie did not fail to surprise me. I thought the performances were all strong (even Cameron Diaz - I'm not a fan of hers). Diaz manages to pull off the sweet bride to be, but under the thin veneer of girlish charm - she's a soulless harpie. She and Slater's performances mirror each others in this film.

The film is about a bachelor party that goes very wrong (don't they all?). I'm not going to give away too much of the plot. I personally like Jon Favreau, Favreau manages to have that "what the f*** look on his face at every turn, as well he should. Christian Slater plays the smarmy sociopath that has managed to justify his outlook via motivational/positive thinking. He tries to put a positive spin on an accidental death and murder that isn't convincing the other characters, but entertaining. Hence I couldn't complain about his performance. But perhaps the strongest performance comes from Jeremy Piven. Even though he plays a supporting character, he manages to be careless, hedonistic, repentant, sympathetic and annoying all at the same time.

You don't see a hint of Ari Gold in this performance, which tells me he is more than able to calibrate his performance to script more than most actors these days. He's good at playing weasels, but he managed to make Michael both a weasel and sympathetic all at once - bravo!

Overall, if you like dark comedies - you might want to give this one a viewing.

It’s a dark movie that shows how easy things can get out of control. Some parts especially the ending made me really laugh

not for the mainstream

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 20, 2006

Ok. I'd Like to start this off by asking, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?" If leaving the comfort of your sheltered daily lives for 2 hours to experience something new and different, albeit dark and twisted, then by all means avoid this flick. The movie is a little over the top but, unfortunately stuff like this really does happen! Maybe not to the same extent with the funny little twists of this plot but, believe it or not, there are bad people in the real world. This movie only treis to make a crack at humanity's darker side. Every one of us, like it or not, has the ability to get caught up in a "good time gone bad". I'd say this is one of those little gems that comes along and slips it's way into mainstream media somehow and shocks the general public into the realization that they ARE human and this is why flicks like this get bashed. People don't want to be human, they just want to live in their bubbles. To experience life outside the bubble, go ahead and give this one a shot. The acting is superb and the plot is ridiculous.

technically excellent, but left a bad taste

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 4, 1999

Verified Purchase

In general I approve of black comedy. "Theatre of Blood" is a favourite of mine, for example. I thought "Fargo" was great. VBT, however, does not work for me as entertainment; I think this is for one very simple reason: the plot centers around the murder (or manslaughter) of a prostitute by a hopped-up John, and this -- wake up folks -- is not fantasy but something that happens every goddamn day all over the world. I have heard that the cops in LA and NYC don't even start investigating the deaths of hookers till they reach double digits per month.
So, umm, a bunch of rich white guys killing a hooker and then a black security guard just doesn't strike me as unrealistic enough to be funny.
This is a fantastically misanthropic film; the only person with a conscience gets killed off only half way through, and though in the end the bad guys get what's coming to them, it hardly qualifies as a morality play. There is no one you can like in this cast of characters. The writing and directing has a cold and depressing quality; the general mode is one of deep contempt for humanity, a sort of vicious post-Swiftian accidie.
The only bright points for me were its uncompromising illumination of just how stupidly grown men behave when in packs, and (here I'll give it four stars) its cruelly accurate dissection of the selfish amorality behind most popular "self-help" pseudo-philosophies. Slater makes a truly demonic villain, but again he is just a bit too real to be comfortably hilarious -- I get the feeling that there are people just like him running many major corporations :-)
It's true one can have more than enough of trad Hollywood feel-good fare, but I think VBT is not the right antidote. It has the Tarantino disease, a kind of cold creeping nastiness that offers sadism in place of wit and blood-n-guts shock value in place of any real originality. See it for Slater's virtuoso performance -- it's a classic, right up there with Peter Lorre at his scariest and funniest -- but don't expect to feel cheerful afterwards. I felt like I wanted to wash my face and hands after it was over.

VERY BAD THINGS IS OUTRAGEOUSLY GOOD!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 14, 2013

Verified Purchase

I've never seen anything like it. I'm convinced in its first release it did not get the critical acclaim or box office bucks it deserved. Hands down, its better than HANGOVER, which was also very good, and I'm wondering if that film wasn't based on Very Bad Things.

I'd like to speak to Peter Berg, the Director, and ask him if he realized how phenomenal his efforts were. I'm actually using his film as a model of how to write and direct. I think it should be required to watch in all Cinema classes. And Cameron Diaz, Christian Slater, ALL of the actors were at their very best, and as we know, went on to stardom.

There's one scene in there (I won't give it away), but it was soooo UNEXPECTED and SHOCKING and HILARIOUS, I almost died laughing. OMG! If you never see another film again in your life, VERY BAD THINGS is a MUST SEE!

Very Funny Things ...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 8, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a dark ... very dark comedy. If you watch it with that in mind, it's over-the-top and very funny. The casting was great with (soon-to-be-married) Jon Favreau, (brothers) Daniel Stern and Jeremy Piven, and (the unpredictable) Leland Orser. Throw Christian Slater into the mix and you know some (very) bad things are just around the corner.

I bought this for my son, and I hope that he likes it half as much as I do! It's a black comedy that gets blacker as the film progresses. I LOVE it, and I think it's Christian Slater's best film!

This is a fantastic film, very under-rated and badly copied by films such as The Hangover. Great cast, good laughs and a real cult film to watch over and over!
