This may not be destined for the same cult adoration as Fight Club, but Clark Gregg's directorial debut is still an excellent film in its own right. A black as night comedy, Choke is often uproariously funny (funnier, frankly, than every other intentional comedy that's come out of Hollywood this year... put together) and always exceedingly well acted by an eclectic cast. Sam Rockwell again makes the case that he really ought to be better known, Anjelica Huston is moving as his mother and Kelly McDonald, having stolen several scenes in No Country For Old Men, almost runs away with the whole movie this time out. Choke will put some off with its relentless sex, and its amoral protagonist, but it really will be their loss.
