Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

whpratt1 This film starts off with a red sports car driving down a country road and then you notice that this red sports car is pulled off the side of the road and the driver is using a hammer hitting everything under the hood. All of a sudden you see a blue Cadillac pull up next to the red car and a pretty young gal, Missy Lofton,(Neve Campbell) asks the driver, Jimmy McGee, (Billy Burke) if he needs a ride in her car and Jimmy agrees. Missy shows Jimmy the small town of Lost Junction and a mechanic who will tow and fix his car. Missy is a strange girl who wants to be treated like a lady and is very soft spoken and is too sweet to be wholesome and had some very deep dark secrets. Jimmy and Missy decided to take a trip to New Orleans and visited a disco club and danced together and even go to a very old New Orleans cemetery. You will never believe how this picture will end and I would never have been able to guess.

AlanSquier Really, just what can you say about a movie that has a gal who's driving around with her husband's dead body in the trunk, a drifter who pushed his best friend off a cliff crippling him for life (the best friend is one of the characters too), a no-goodnik trying to make off with a batch of money he's got no right to, and a batch of yokel law enforcers? Well, I gave it a mediocre rating because I can't say it's really good...it sort of wanders all around the place in no hurry to get to where it's going. On the other hand, I can't say it's bad because there was never a place where I wanted to stop watching it.So really, I think you should see it. Neve Campbell is good as Missy as is Billy Burke as Jimmy.The bottom line is that I can't rate it high nor can I rate it low, but I can't say it's mediocre either. I really think you should see it.And if anybody gives this review a helpful rating, I shall be shocked!

blackie-5 I can usually find at least one thing to enjoy about a bad film, even if it's just the scenery or one actor's performance. Lost Junction, however, was one hundred percent lost on me and I'd like my $4 rental fee back. If I ever run into Neve Campbell or Peter Masterson, I'm going to ask that they repay me. I truly felt I had been watching this movie for at least an hour, and looked over at the clock to find I was only 23 minutes in! This is one of those films that's supposed to be about Southern Gothic, quirky characters in oh-so-disturbing, Southern Gothic scenarios. But it's anything but. This is one of those "Southern" tales where the Southern-ness is so pathetically imitated, the most "belle"-like thing Neve or the script can ever muster is to have Neve CONSTANTLY say to her leading man "Oh, Jimmy McGee!" (Because we all recognize a young, airheaded woman who likes to coo a man's FIRST AND LAST NAMES EACH AND EVERY TIME SHE SPEAKS TO HIM as "Southern"). The plot goes NOWHERE until the last 10 minutes(when it's way too late), bringing a throwaway character, a near-extra, into sudden plot relevance, taking away anything quirky or disturbing we've taken as truth about the 2 main characters for the last 90 minutes! An absolutely atrocious, unwatchable film. I refused to turn it off before it was over only because I'd paid that $4 (and I was determined to watch all of it, hoping it would improve), but BOY WAS IT AN ENDURANCE TEST!!!!!!!! Peter Masterson directed this, the same man responsible for the great "Trip to Bountiful." Hard to believe. Keep driving past this LOST JUNCTION!

Fitzweldon I was not planning on watching this movie - just happened to come across it right at the beginning on USA Channel and thought I'd sit through the first 5 minutes. I ended up with it to the very end. The best part of the movie was the excellent character development and the fascinating interactions they had with each other throughout the film.You never knew where Neve Campbell's character was going next and Billy Burke was great being positively perplexed.This movie is definately worth seeing.
