A review by scotsedley
The Hottest State by Ethan Hawke

1.0

I almost always give Ethan Hawke a pass. I really like him in most film roles. And the ones I don't like him in, I let those slide due to the ones I do like. When I heard that he's directing a film based on this book, I thought I'd give it a read. But, it's awful. Dick-Lit of the worse kind. The conversational tone of the book isn't that bad. The characters are just uninteresting at best and deplorable at worst. Still, I'm curious to see the movie...
