More a themed sketch show than a film in any real sense. Certainly as far as narrative, plot or character development go. So while some bits work and work fabulously some scenes, especially the earlier ones emphatically don't. There's a lot of stuff in here that's absolutely spot and that anyone who's been clubbing in the nineties can relate to but there's a hell of a lot of tripe as well. This film certainly parrots a lot of drugs related clichés but then taking drugs, especially ecstasy is such a generic experience that in some ways clichés are perfectly excusable. And some of it like the spliff politics are amusingly done, with self appointed spokesmen for cannabis aficionados everywhere Howard Marks no less, although true stoners are divided as to the merits of this scene. For those who've been there Human Traffic manages to strike the occasional chord and for the rest it's an occasionally amusing series of gags but it offers no real insight. On a plus though it does have techno god Carl Cox in his acting debut! Its hard to shake the feeling that this is the last days of the last great spontaneous youth movement brushed up and rebranded for commercial profit. But it does have Carl Cox in it.Read full review
As I await the arrival of this little gem of a movie, I can only but smile that wry, slightly circled corner smirk, y'know.. the 'been there, done that, bought the dvd' kinda smile. This is the second copy of the movie I've purchased, having lent the first to a 'like minded' friend of mine, knowing in all honesty of its fatal return. It's true to say, this is not a family film (even Granny Woodstock would struggle) or even a killer of a movie, but it's good... REALLY good! A younger John Simms and Danny Dyer** path the way for a drug induced, life changing, friends conquer all night out. Great humour, very entertaining and, depending on your stance in life, fairly educational If your still reading this review and can stratch together a couple of quid from the back of the sofa/fridge/parents bank account (!) then get this film.. Failing that, find yourself a mate with a copy!! :0) ** How the mighty have grown Ooo Er!!Read full review
