'DRIVE AWAY DOLLS'......HALF-BAKED, WARMED OVER PULP FRICTION.....FROM ONE HALF OF THE COEN BROTHERS.....


 Drive Away Dolls (2024)......gave BQ flashback nausea over all those sucky would-be Tarantino knock-offs that rolled off the assembly line after 'Pulp Fiction' caught fire........

         So along comes this instant non-entity, a sucky, would-be Coen Brothers knock-off that smells like an A.I. programmer typed in, "Make an imitation LGBTQ Coen Brothers movie"

         What's scary......it didn't happen that way. This turdburger was slapped together by an actual real life Coen brother......Ethan. 

          But we suspect he started by feeding at least twenty old Coen brothers scripts into an A.I. database and typed "Make an imitation LGBTQ road trip look and sound like a Coen Brothers movie...."

         The resulting film is weird and depressing to behold.....similar to watching those Madame Tussaud's CGI attempts to de-age actors to resemble younger versions of themselves. Ewww. Yuk. 

          There's pathetic attempts at imitating Coen brothers dialogue banter, casual violence, gallows humor......all of it ground out like a can of generic instant coffee......

          And for reasons unclear to us, the film drags in psychadelic, lightshow laser rock visual gibberish, as if the producers raided the garbage bins of outtakes from old head-trip 1970's movies. 

           Okay, we'll stop now. Life's too short to waste on more precious minute on whatever the hall this movie is or isn't.

             Zero stars. (0). Nothing a well armed portable flame thrower couldn't cure.......
