Critic Reviews for Heart Beat
All Critics (3) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (0) | Rotten (3)
Heart Beat, which is supposedly about Jack Kerouac and his friends in the Beat Generation, is Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice without Alice and without humor.
The characters are wonderfully well played by Nick Nolte Sissy Spacek and John Heard -- they have scenes together in which the round-robin of everyday dialogue is almost poetic -- but nobody has given their characters anything to do except to be.
The analysis of the beats comes across as superficial.
