200 Motels (1971)
1/10
Mr. Zappa is a composer indeed, but he's not a god
25 January 2008
I've been reading about it for years. I got to finally watch it. It's absolute rubbish.

I'm not to happy with what I said because criticizing something doesn't mean attacking it or cursing it. And I'm a big Zappa fan. I listened to most of his music, read about him, read his book, watched almost all of his videos. I'm not fond of his dark egotistical sexually-obsessed cynical obnoxious side. I'm more for his unique, innovative, independent, genius, creative, pleasant musical side.

He was intelligent. He was an articulate speaker. A funny man.

He's not a god. And he's definitely not a filmmaker.

The film is just boring. I lost interest after struggling with it for 1 hour. And it's not like I'm not open-minded or I don't understand. I like surrealism, absurdity, and the avant-garde. But the film was just tasteless.
