Adds up to less than its admittedly entertaining parts.

Reviews for Full Frontal
a dizzyingly convoluted exploration of sex, art, identity and reality
10/28/03
What Full Frontal lacks in thematic coherence it largely makes up for as loosey-goosey, experimental entertainment. Still, I'm not quite sure what the point is…
08/26/02
A clever conceit that works in some sequences, mostly those involving Keener, and less well in others, mostly those involving Roberts and Underwood.

Top CriticInsane hilarity... the cast has plenty of fun chewing the scenery
08/01/02
See this movie for its humor and talented cast and you won't be disappointed.
08/02/02
I will be the first to admit that it is a film that most people will not like, and should probably stay away from.
09/03/02
Penetratingly draws us in to this passing snapshot of just a few of the many unsatisfying lives in Tinseltown.
08/04/02
Smart, fun, intricate and full of itself in a wonderful way.
08/01/02
Top CriticFragmented, elliptical and overplotted to the point of being hard to track. Still, it's worth hanging in for the finish ... [when] Soderbergh pulls off a delicious trick, a gesture of pure, tender, unabashed movie love that makes up for everything.
08/01/02
Watching it is exasperating at first, but it grows more engrossing.
08/02/02
Top CriticOnce I got used to the deliberately atrocious cinematography, I found the film playful, funny, sometimes even sweet.
08/12/02
The screenplay by Coleman Hough has an equal mix of humor and humanity as it circles around the busy lives of seven people searching for intimate relationships.
08/08/02
Steven Soderbergh's digital video experiment is a clever and cutting, quick and dirty look at modern living and movie life.
08/02/02
Works because it is unafraid to be so open, rough and unresolved.
08/20/02
None of it makes much sense, but most of it is fun, some hilarious.
10/21/02
Fraught with character confusion, but ultimately worth the effort.
07/31/02
An entertaining, often amusing exercise made to look more artistic and intellectual than it really is.
08/02/02
Altman plowed this ground in movies like Nashville and A Wedding, and Soderbergh spices it with the playful postmodernism of an A-List director who has the confidence to try anything once.
07/29/02
I will recommend it to anyone wanting to see something different.
