Some crappy big budget movies are a curse for the genre they aim to prop up. They end up turning off the dwindling audience for that kind of movie and also snuff the chances of other movies in the genre. THE BIG TOWN cost $15 million and had a stellar cast - MATT DILLON, BRUCE DERN, TOMMY LEE JONES, DIANE LANE and TOM SKERRIT. It is a bit of a dud. There is only so much a stellar cast can do with such a meandering script.
BRUCE DERN's character and his tragic back story were interesting. DIANE LANE looked hot.
The movie is about a young gambler who moves from a small town to Chicago, hits on the local big shots girl and then finds true love. I enjoyed parts of it due to the cast. It is like a porn film with all the right actors but the direction sucked.
(6/10)
