The poster for Hesher has been revealed, the film will be released in April this year and stars Natalie Portman and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
A strange, unpleasant film that lacks the tools to successfully get its point across; it knows what it wants to say but not what it wants to be. Full review by Chris Pandolfi.
Metro Times: For those not versed in dated mall lingo, a "hesher" was a particular breed of long-haired, pre-grunge headbanger, similar to a burnout; but usually distinguished by more grime and a nastier attitude. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has attitude in spades as the title character, a living personification of the scraggly social misfits who'd do donuts in suburban parking lots.
Detroit News: Hesher is a beautiful mess.
With his long, scraggly hair, skin-and-bones bod and obscene, amateurish tattoos, he looks like some heavy metal washout.
But then one of the beauties of "Hesher" is you never really know who he is, or where he came from. He's a wastoid of mystery.
I'd not actually heard of the movie until I saw this, gunna look out for it now though!
I've heard of it, but I can say I'm not terribly interested. I'm sure I'll watch it because of the two incredible actors they have attached, but for now that's my only reason.
I remember watching the trailer here a little while ago. I think I will be waiting to see it on Blu ray as it has no reason to see it in theaters.
That whole Metallica (parody) logo is kinda annoying me though.
He looks like Dimebag in the poster to me. I noticed the Metallica lettering too and I dislike that part.
Really wanna see it for Rainn and NP though even though they're probably in it for all of 20 minutes. I'm still warming up to JGL.
