...Hooters-style hangout, enlists her for his film and promptly gets rolled by her in contract negotiations, is as sharp and modulated a satire of Hollywood hucksterism as anything this side of David Mamet. Unfortunately, the play doesn't quite know where to go after that. The focus shifts to Sheena's surly, pill-popping, wheelchair-bound mother, who is outraged (not very credibly) at her daughter's job on feminist grounds and vows to stop the production.

As a result, the movie seems a little disjointed at times, pausing on extreme high-angle close ups of Ronnie’s face as he contemplates his life, before moving to hand-held shots that follow him as he runs after terrified skateboarders...
