The tone for this was set for me with the pretty explicit (no pun intended) links to Henry Miller, honestly, so I really enjoyed the sordid trashiness of it all.
It doesn't really have a whole lot to actually say that hasn't been said before, though I did really enjoy the scene where Cairo seems to see right through Jonathon, towering over him while dressing him down.
I will say, if I had been in a different mood I would have probably hated this and not even finished watching it.
