I like this movie for its atmosphere and attitude. It's mostly night, there is a bar fight or some other kind of fight every 15 minutes or more often. Other illegalities abound (with houses and cars burnt down etc), sex, alcohol and the smell of violence are ever-present. It's a world of its own, with never a cop in sight and the house band always carrying on performing no matter how big a bar fight is taking place around them, and the surprisingly intense atmosphere - you can smell the hot summer Saturday night - draws you in. There's something of a mythical America here (in a modern Western style), at least for a European viewer like me. True, it's a child of its time, but you are meant to take this in a certain way to appreciate it.
