More boring than you'd expect from a movie about doing coke and making porn. Directed by Emilio Estevez. One thinks a more seasoned director could have gotten more from this story. Clarity, emotion, context. What it has instead are fake-looking bald skull caps for Estevez and his brother. It's hard to take them seriously in those things, and you have to think they'd just go ahead and shave their heads if they were serious about the movie. My best guess is that Sheen's hair is worth more than the box office receipts of this film, making it a wash if he were to cut it.
The Mitchell Brothers are a fairly interesting story of course. But you'd do as well to just read the wikipedia page.
My roommate shared a nugget of joy with me yesterday. He said while visiting Steamboat Springs, Colorado on a ski trip he and friends were drinking in a bar and spotted Estevez. They went over, bought him a beer, and thanked him for making the movie "Men at Work."
