A restrained look at an unrestrained event.

"Groove" is a restrained and moderately realistic look at an all night rave happening in a hijacked Frisco warehouse. The film refuses to pander to the viscera as it follows a few ravers, portraying them as ordinary vulnerable people, while presenting a thumbnail overview of the anatomy of a rave including the requisite sex, drugs, and bottled water. When the party's over, the film ends. "Groove" will have very limited appeal as the "PDA's" will fault it for its inaccuracies while "main frames" won't be able to empathize.

Catch the Rave.

Groove is another Generation X Rave-based movies. It's about an all-night rave at some abandoned warehouse. There is no real story, other than focusing in on some of the little tidbits of several of the attendees.

I never really saw a movie that depicts the rave culture the way that it should be--the love and invigoration of the underground music pounding in your ears to the flash of a some pretty colored lights. You and about thirty other people jumping on the floor with nothing else on your mind but having a good time. Unfortunately, movies like Groove tend to undermine that aspect, instead concentrating on some of the most idiotic characters imaginable.

Albeit the music is hot (finally not cheesy pop raves like the movie Human Traffic had),but the character themselves are highly annoying mirror images of actual rave personalities, giving you a glipmse at a culture that has produced something quite as oblivious and ridiculous as hippies were in the 60s and 70s. That's a bitterly annoying aspect of this film, people sitting around buzzed, talking about their hallucinations of absolute euphoria and being one with the universe. And in the end, after sizing up their lives so far and talking about how disappointed they are with it, they don't change anything. Aside from the vigilance of this part of the underground culture, the movie emphasizes (far too much) absolute nonsense. I think if the characters were much goofier and more willing to have fun, instead of being just a bunch of tired burnouts, then this movie could've been a lot better to watch.

By the way, if it's the generation x rave movies you like to watch, give "Human Traffic," a try. It's about a bunch of friends in Britian who shake off their tired work week at a weekend of raves. It's funnier, but then again, you do wind up running into that "one with the universe" bull again.

Party freaks dance all night

Crazy picture about a group who go to all manner of effort to put on techno dance parties in abandoned buildings. The spaced out dancers [for want of a better word] were entertained for several hours by a succession of DJ's, each with his/her own collection of tunes. Since the law was being broken to hold the event things didn't go smoothly all night, however everyone seemed to take it in stride. Interesting look a portion of a degenerate generation whose sole intent is to have a good time.
