WHAT WAS SAID

Invoked as the tasteless alternate version Bill once imagined for the film.

Praised as someone who preferred the most entertaining, heightened version of a concept and made the movie’s glamour work.

Referenced as a director Kilmer allegedly clashed with during Batman Forever.

Seen as a director with style who made flawed studio movies; 8MM is treated as one of his more interesting efforts.

Praised as the right kind of flashy 90s director for this material but also tied to the movie’s trashiness and limitations.
