this sounds like one of those tv-to-movie transitions that requires nostalgia for it to be watchable.

My friend collected quotes from a bunch of bad reviews. They make it sound incredible:

"the trippiest stonerfest since Stanley Kubrick took his space odyssey"

"adventurously awful"

"Orgy, hell"

"a Warholian blur of pop art"

"It's a family film done as a trip film"

"like a nightmare in which you're trapped in an arcade with screens on all sides and no eyelids"

"like eye candy laced with lidocaine"

"the movie is more akin to that phenomenon by which young infants, exposed to more stimuli than their systems are equipped to handle, will simply shut down"

"you wonder if the Wachowskis aren't trying to pull off an elaborate hoax"

"fakeness of it all overwhelms"

"self-conscious grandiosity"

"gaudy as a transvestites convention and soullessly cute as a robot puppy"

"Gaudier than a Hindu-temple roof"

"a deranged techno fantasia posing as retro-ish family fare"

"The movie demands you be a glutton for sensation"

"what might result from the explosion of a Crayola factory"

"Borderline-experimental in the way it challenges the limits of perception. It's forward-thinking, visionary, and much of the time unwatchable."
