I like this film still, but admittedly I think it isn't as interesting as some of his other works, but opinions could change

“Wild” is right! David Lynch’s movies can be difficult, but I really enjoy this one. Love the cast. Love the soundtrack. Love the wackiness.

Not Lynch’s best but definitely his most “unhinged”. Just a crazy road movie and Cage isn’t even the craziest part

The best Nicolas cage movie since it feels a lot like true romance

Not my favorite, but good. All cast aside from Cage are great. Feels like he’s trying too hard. A surreal, sensual homage(?) to Wizard of Oz

Brilliant Movie. Emotive and evocative performances across the board. Lots of action and good pacing. Laura Dern is super hot too!

Though messy and flawed, Wild at Heart has a wonderfully chaotic energy and features amazing performances from all involved
