The Beach Bum

Harmony Korine’s (Gummo, Kids) tale of Floridian poet and all round beautiful misfit, Moondog (McConaughey) is triumph of rhyme over reason. A neon soaked tone poem, “The Beach Bum” is a modern day telling of Homer’s The Odyssey, with the epic hero reimagined as a stoner who encounters a variety of grotesques on his journey home, such as Jonah Hill’s broad Southern caricature, Martin Lawrence’s very funny dolphin tour guide, and Zac Efron’s sociopathic rehab roomie. History will prove this film to be Korine’s sweetest, funniest and most accessible.
