Ben Stiller stars in his most crack smoking role in this dark comedy about the life of a drug addicted tv show writer. Permanent Midnight is packed with other stars such as Owen Wilson, Elizabeth Hurley, Janeane Garofalo and Peter Greene. Stiller is famous for his embarassing bathroom scenes and this movie has a couple of them. One involving shooting herion in a bathroom and another one involving shooting his blood on the ceiling after shooting herion in his veins. In one scene he actually runs out of the bathroom in some type of halucinagenic freakout in which he sees a tv show puppet make fun of him. If you are down with seeing Stiller shoot up with a baby or smoke crack and then throw his body against the window of a twenty-something story building for kicks, then this is the movie for you.
3 1/2 stars
