O my.... hehehe :) What can I say.. this movie is definitely not for everyone. The dialogs, the pace, the plot, it's all really terrible. But my god, did I laugh! Seldomly it happens that a movie brings me to tears from laughter, but "I Love Dries" did, and it did so almost all the way through! From the moment it started, it put a big smile on my face. While thinking: "I wonder how many people would actually appreciate this sort of humor", I just couldn't stop smiling.
Having read quite some comments on the net about this movie, I noticed how many people take this movie far too seriously. My guess is that the director never planned to make a seriously good movie. It's all just one big satire, and an homage to bad taste.
My compliments to Dries for not shying away from self-deprecating humor, and my even bigger compliments to René and Rikkie de Wit! It takes a lot of courage to have yourself portrayed like this in a movie! Because let's face it, the way René and Rikkie are portrayed is not exactly flattering, to say the least. But they never seem to hesitate to put themselves in such a position.
Aside from the horrible -and therefore great- acting, the setting and colors were just perfect. Almost the entire movie is filmed in a trailer, with chaotic birds and dogs to complete the trailer park feeling. The colors were all slightly off, or just a bit too much. It all gave it a bit of an 80's feeling, but then again, just... off.
If you expect a movie with a seriously good plot, serious humor, seriously great actors, then skip it, don't waste your time and money. But if you can laugh over a good fart and you really appreciate bad taste to the max, then this might just be the movie for you.
