Justin Theroux

Begin by imagining that a single story is being told in multiple ways throughout the film: a story of naive hopes, heartbreak, jealousy...Erotic, fear-ridden, and beautiful, Lynch's primal imagery has the abhorrent and alluring pull of death itself.

Conceptually...The Baxter is hobbled, and all Showalter has is his concept.

In his 36 years of filmmaking, David Lynch has never been more fearless or more fearsome...Inland Empire brims with surprising and scary images.

The promise of extraordinary brain power isn't fulfilled.

Ultimately, the magic-and-monsters milieu isn’t enough when the jokes are half-baked.

A mental-health exploitation picture.
