04/04/2012 In Azazel Jacobs film The Good Times Kid, the lives of two unrelated men, both named Rodolfo Cano, intertwine during a 24 hour time window in LA. They are both brought together when one of the Rodolfo's in mistaken by the US Army for the other, who has enlisted into the service. Thrown in the middle is Diaz, well played by the luminescent Sara Diaz, who toggles between the two when deciding her own future. What plays out is quite reminiscent to the early films of Jim Jarmusch, complete with understated performances, key musical moments and the saving grace of the film, stunning cinematography by Eric Curtis and director Jacobs. An extremely charming an interesting film that slipped under the radar back in 2005 but deserves a good look.

The film seems rather rough aesthetically at points, but Jacobs' characters and their actions, or lack thereof, are the most compelling aspects. Sara Diaz is the breakout of the movie, bringing with her to the role a sense of carelessness and freedom that is difficult to recreate. See more 02/25/2010 Guerrilla punk filmmaking!

The film reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite, with the main actor looking like an older version of Pedro. Vote Pedro! See more Read all reviews
