FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

richard_sleboe Is that really Bono? Heck, why not. He's everywhere, so he might as well be in this slow and uninspired b-movie. Not such a bad fit with his some of his other artistic accomplishments really. Working from his own experience as a former music video director, writer-director Phil Joanou simply can't decide whether this portrayal of his alter ego Jake Walsh is meant to be funny, grungy, romantic, deadpan, or all of the above. It wraps up on a romantic note, but with a different ending, it might as well be filed under "screwball" or even "pub-crawl". That's how random it is. The way the action freezes and Jake (Stephen Dorff) walks onto the stills to comment feels like a cool idea from a hundred years ago. The same goes for the split screen illustrating Jake's phone conferences with his producers, agents, lawyers and other freeloaders on the fringes of the period piece he is trying to make. "Entropy" is nowhere near as wild as the promotion suggests ("Booze, binges, broads"). Incoherently, some reviewers have compared it to Spike Jonze's masterpiece, "Being John Malkovich", which is about as far off the mark as it gets. If you want to see Stephen Dorff as a crazy director, I strongly recommend "Cecil B. Demented" instead. Oh, and just for the record: No way would a woman with eyebrows as bushy as Judith Godrèche's get work as a model in the real world.

lemon-aide I admit it...I only gave Entropy a try because I am a disgusting U2 fan. And Bono wasn't really all that bad in his first acting role...playing himself.The story is stale. Much of the comedy is predictable. The dialogue is very weak.However! This film has AMAZING style. The colors, lighting, and cinematography are gorgeous.So, I suggest, in order to get the utmost enjoyment out of the film is to mute it and play a cd (perhaps a cd of the Irish rock band variety).

Tommy N It's refreshing to see a movie like this get made instead of some of the farces we seeing studio heads giving the green light to, today. Kudos to those who both greenlighted it and who made it.Entropy had it all for me because it was funny, tragic (funny tragic) and dramatic. I felt good throughout the movie and I actually don't know why I didn't know more about it or Phil Joanou. I blame this on the modern day movie machine not being able to properly promote movies that are both creative and eye catching. The scenes from New York's waterfront are in bold and contrasting colors, and it enlivened me further during a recent visit there. Joanou did the right thing film makers are supposed to do, he inspired us to see more into life and art and be entertained in the process. Such is the personal story that is being told in Entropy. After all, I don't think there is a single soul out there that hasn't felt some sort of incident or disaster in our romantic lives, and can't look back at it and laugh at in jest. We are not the most perfect of people, us humans, and all the better we can share the experience!I give Entropy an "8" just because it was so entertaining and visual, and while there will be many that will call this plainly over-rating, I don't care, I just really enjoyed the movie and could watch it again and again.

boneal01 OK, so I think some people have every right to dislike this movie- it's silly, it's predictable, and it doesn't really have what I would call a hook. But I really enjoyed. Maybe because it just doesn't mirror what I expect from this genre of movie- or maybe because Stephen Dorff is more interesting every time I see another movie with him in it.. Remember "The Power Of One"? I gave this movie an 8 because I wasn't expecting to like the movie at all when I rented it, but it surprised me by not being what I expected at all (while still fulfilling every predictable aspect of a romantic comedy in the 90's)... Rent it only if you also rent a movie you know you will like.
