The lead story here, undeniably, is that Oliver Stone is up to his old tricks.
“Savages” is old school Stone. It’s a story with a cast of crazy and colorful characters, caught up in violent situations, soaked in drugs and sex, performed by a great cast who all seem to be relishing their deliciously cheesy roles, and wrapped up in Stone’s unmistakable, inimitable directorial stylings.
I don’t know if I can call it good, but it sure as Hell is fun.
