Citizen Duane

This was a really good film, it didn't have a lot of boring parts in it and the humor was subtle but hilarious. Watch it if you haven't.

A definite thanks goes out to doctor7 for getting me to see this. Citizen Duane does a commendable amount to distance itself from the usual high-school comedy, and it's semi-bleak tone, combined with it's sharp script and solid performances, make these 84 minutes go by fast and fun. Can be compared favorably to Rushmore, but without all the showiness, which in Citizen Duane's case, is a serious compliment.

Positively hilarious black comedy that offers a considerable amount that differentiates itself from the other comedies in the same genre. If you enjoy movies like Little Miss Sunshine you'll enjoy this one. It packs a solid script with an offbeat story. Combine this with great performances, Douglas Smith is especially hilarious in the title role of Duane and I found Donal Logue to be surprisingly good, and you've got a killer comedy. Worth seeing for sure.
