4/10
Jerry Stahl is a complete junkie. He tells his life story to a fellow rehabber after she picks him up at his fast food job. Through conversational flashbacks we get glimpses of how Jerry wrecks his life.
Uninspiring. Stale. Meandering.
Jerry as well as all the other characters have no background, and they are completely flat. Perhaps a social commentary on the LA Scene, yet that has been done better elsewhere. Interesting to see Stiller as a junkie, but thats the best part.
