Entertainment Reviews:
Shot in blinding colors, with an eye for artifice and a fixation on flesh, Kaboom is one happy, horny movie.
Philadelphia Weekly
Araki lets his absurdist imagination run wild, and KABOOM takes the time-honored gambit of gradually revealing that nothing is as it seems to delightfully cockamamie extremes.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 4/10 --
Kaboom plays out like a a ridiculously campy, and poorly written comic book. It's not very coherent and has a terrible ending.

We Got This Covered
KABOOM exists entirely in and for the moment.
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 2/5 --
Watching films whose characters spend much of their time staring at computer screens or waking up from dreams is a bit of a drag.

The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia)
Rating: 2/5 --
A very peculiar campus comedy in which the students seem to have abandoned any pretence of intellectual endeavour for a non-stop merry-go-round of bed-hopping.

Product Description:
Writer and director Gregg Araki revisits the day-glo universe of sex, drugs, and random perversity that informed his early films in this over-the-top dark comedy. Smith (Thomas Dekker) is an 18-year-old film student who is bisexual and has a ravenous erotic appetite; his best friend is Stella (Haley Bennett), who prefers the company of women but is just as enthusiastic about pursuing new lovers. Smith has been haunted by a series of recurring dreams featuring two beautiful women, one dark and enigmatic, the other similarly spectral with flaming red hair. This wouldn't bother him, except that the women from his dreams have begun appearing in real life -- Lorelei (Roxane Mesquida), Stella's new partner, is a magic aficionado who's a dead ringer for the dark-haired woman, and the red-haired girl (Nicole LaLiberte) is being pursued by a gang of masked assassins. Has Smith stumbled into a plot with possible world-changing consequences' Or is this all just the product of some hallucinogenic cookies he was served at a party' KABOOM received its world premiere at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival.
