Nope, people's reasons for it being a great film are "well, it's not meant to have a plot".
It was dull. I didn't hate it, I just thought it was quite mediocre. Really unlikeable characters, far too American as well.
I just couldn't relate to it at all.

And I share your lack of understanding for trash film lovers. Especially if you like them when you're sober. Maybe that's the deal tho, maybe Lee's a stoner!  |
I think you're right there.
I think you have to look at which came first, when you watch 2 films that are very similar. The film that came first must have influenced the film that came later on, even if it doesn't rip it off.
You'll always prefer the more original and fresh film. I think that's the case with The Godfather and OUATIA.
I'm gonna hold off for a while to watch OUATIA, mainly because I have to be in the mood to watch a 3 and a half hour film.
And yeah, I wouldn't put it past him.
