13 Moons (2002)
Member Rating:  
The director of such off-beat independent films as In the Soup, director Alexandre Rockwell once again teams with that film's star to deliver this Los Angeles-based comedy concerning superstition and intersecting lives. Things aren't looking so good for television clown Banana's (Steve Buscemi) career, and the fact that his estranged wife, Suzi (Jennifer Beals), has just been arrested for assaulting his girlfriend, Lily (Karyn Parsons), just serves to compound Banana's despair. Teaming with sidekick Binky (Peter Dinklage) to enlist the aid of bail-bondsman Mo (David Proval), Banana and Binky discover that Mo is currently negotiating the release of hip-hop mogul Lenny's (Daryl Mitchell) wife, Sandra (Rose Rollins). The hapless group soon teams to help Mo by finding a suitable kidney donor for the bail-bondsman's ailing son, and though they quickly happen across a drunk (Peter Stormare) who fits the bill, the trouble comes in keeping the prospect in the hospital. Doing their best to help Mo's son under increasingly chaotic circumstances, personal tensions flare as each character desperately tries to simultaneously battle their own inner demons. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

i saw the cast (love love love steve buscemi) and got all excited. i sat through the first hour and some change and fast forwarded the rest. very slow boring movie. there doesnt seem to be any scripted dialogue, as if the cast improvised thier lines, and it shows. its like the poster movie for people who hate indie films, b/c they mistakenly think they're all like this one.

This movie was so bad, that it stunk up my house!!! Don't waste your time with this one just because of the cast. Don't undersatnd why Steve Buscemi would even star in this movie. I don't think you can call this "junk" a movie. Nothing entertaining about it and very confusing. Just a joke!!!

I am a fan of Steve Buscemi and enjoyed "In the Soup" by director Alexandre Rockwell, but, as other reviewers have said, after watching this film for 15 minutes, I turned it off. It was just too dark and depressing for me.

Given the cast in this film, I hoped for a funny, quirky indie film. What I got was a disjointed, unfunny shambles of a film that I would not recommend to anyone. When everyone in a film is bad, I contend it has to be the director's fault. Don't waste your time on this one.

A Bail bondsman (Proval) has a son he barely knows that needs a kidney transplant. The kidney is to come from a runaway drug & alcohol addict (yes that's what I said) that a two timing clown (Buscemi) and his sidekick (Dinklage)and stripper girlfriend, not to mention 3 wayward priests, and a hip-hop record producer help him to find. Terribly ridiculous storyline, but a great cast. Hate when that happens. Michael Park's 1 line & lighting of his cigarette kicked it up a notch for me though. Just strange - and strange can be good if written well - not always written well here though and where the heck was the editing but...performances were memorable - so? I'll star it right in da middle.
