1st Room: Crap - 10; 2nd Room: Pointless, but Beals is decent - 35; 3rd Room: Banderas is great and Rodriguez keeps things interesting. Builds quite nicely to a humorous finish - 71; 4th Room: Can Tarantino play overbearing and obnoxious? Hell yes, he'll knock that shit out of the park. With that obstacle overcome there is nothing to get in the way of the brilliant dialogue or the vibrant and playful direction. A class above - 88

Despite my contrarian tendencies I cannot root for the underdogs this time. Rodriguez and Tarantino show off all their strengths and trademarks in funny and fully developed crowd-pleasing one-scene wonders; Anders's and Rockwell's are incomplete doodles by comparison. Under AA and AR, Roth's "Ted the Bellhop" is an oblivious pixie given to twitching and bouts of muteness; QT & RR wisely limit this Mr. Beanism, and surprise! A memorable character, relatable and skillfully performed, emerges.

The first segment in this star-studded and wildly uneven anthology is horrible, frankly, and the second should also be skipped. But I've watched "The Misbehavers" (Robert Rodriguez' brilliantly perfect contribution) countless times, and I absolutely adore it still (which is why I'm overrating the movie as a whole). Both this story and Quentin Tarantino's finale (which is decent) meticulously set the viewer up for huge payoffs. Also, I love Tim Roth's hilariously hammy performance.

The segments are very uneven in quality. The first two are just colossal disappointments, boring and stupid, the third (by Robert Rodriguez) is delirious and entertaining in a guilty-pleasure sort of way, featuring some hilarious slapstick by Tim Roth, and the final one, the one by Quentin Tarantino, is just Tarantino ripping off himself, and mostly failing.

An extremely unusual film, Four Rooms is split and directed by four directors, Allison Anders, Alexandre Rockwell, Robert Rodriquez, and Quentin Tarantino. The film follows Ted (Tim Roth) a newly hired bellhop who has strange encounters with the hotel's guests. The film gets progressively better and includes numerous cameos, the best coming from Antonio Banderas.

A laugh riot. Four Rooms, a movie made up of four acts, each one directed by another director, is a hilarious and unique film. throughout it all, viewers follow Ted the bellhop through his duties on New Years Eve, and the goings on of the hotel guests. The sense of humor varies between rooms, peaking in the third act, in which Antonio Banderas has an incredible part. Then it calms down to a chuckle-maker and leaves you glad that you found it. Really good!

An almost impressively wretched, near-unwatchable mess feels like Tarantino and Rodriguez were convinced that they could get away with anything after their early 90s successes – wastes a terrific cast on characters who fly to the extremes of deadly dull and blackboard scratching abrasive (and as a special treat, Roth gets to play in both categories); woe be the anthology film where each story becomes progressively worse than the last. Urgh.

One of the stories is written by Tarantino. 4 stories in 4 different rooms: a coven of witches who do a ceremony to bring in life their goddess and they need sperm for that. Another room asks for the groomer because they need ice for their party but they say a wrong room number and the groomer goes into a room with a tied girl and her. Husband thinks that he fucked his wife. Another room with a a married couple with two kids that bring catastrophe. Last room they put a bet to cut the pinky finge

Played very much like a cartoon with its silliness and style, the stories get progressively more entertaining with Rodriguez and Tarantino rounding out the vignettes. Tim Roth is amazing and this is probably Tarantino's best acting role. The first two stories do a good job introducing the bellhop, while the last two bring a satisfying conclusion.

The quality is all over the place and the bellboy too does not seem to stay coherent. If half of the rooms are bad and the other half meh, what does it make the whole? Most of the points I gave came from the oddity of the movie

Much worse than I ever imagined. Tim Roth is insufferable in this, and although - as others have pointed out - Tarantino's segment is the highlight, it's not good either, and seems more like an exercise of self imitation than a fully developed short (his performance is not at all convincing, either). The other segments range from bad to worse. Avoid.

Four Rooms is an interesting movie. It is very much a movie about Hollywood which I usually hate. This one steers far enough away from being too self-fellatiating that I really enjoyed it. I liked the way the movie was divided up into four unique stories done by four unique directors. The acting in the movie was fantastic, which one would expect from such a stellar cast. I'm still trying to figure out Tim Roth's character and the performance that he brought to the character.

Four guys get together and decide to make a movie that nobody except themselves would be able to enjoy. Just in case there half-baked stories weren't enough to get the job done, they tie them together with the most annoying character possible.

I will never understand all the hate that this film gets. By no means an amazing film, but still a very good one. It's an anthology film with four segments each by a different director, the two notables being Tarantino and Rodriquez.

Four Rooms is a film that gets better and easier to watch as it goes on. While the first 2 rooms are poor at best in quality, Rodriguez's room is a blast and Tarantino's room is a well-acted, well-shot awesome short film. Tim Roth rocks through it all like a star, Antonio Banderas is a highlight and Tarantino actually has a solid acting spout here. Not bad, but it starts off pretty bad.

2 stories which are absolutely "whatever happens in the whatever land of whateverness", horrible, no meaning at all! 1 story which might cause some laughter. 1 story which is pretty good and features Quentin in a pretty nice acting!

I think the Tarantino and Rodriguez segments alone make the movie worth watching. They aren't these directors' best, but I think they do a respectable job of carrying the movie. And it's a good thing that they were saved for last. The movie just gets better and better as it goes along, and the ending could not have been better. It's rare that the appearance of a credits roll makes me laugh so much, but this movie pulled it off.

This is a difficult film to review because I really like the last 2 rooms but I dislike the first 2 rooms. The first 2 rooms are not enjoyable at all and the dialogue and situations are poor. The third room with the misbehaving children is delightful and the highlight of the film. The forth room is also really enjoyable, exciting and funny. Overall this movie is an interesting experiment that works for half of the film only.

The Tarantino segment is great, The Rodriguez section has a gut-bustingly hilarious finale, The Rockwell section is unremarkable, and the Anders section is hot garbage. The segments are in opposite order of quality so Four Rooms continues to get better as it progresses and ends on a high note.

Corny and tedious, with irritating cartoonish sound effects throughout. Seems written to speak to one's inner misogynistic frat boy. I got within 15 minutes of the end and couldn't go on. The last segment, with Tarantino going on long expository rants, felt like an improv sketch that didn't gel. Disturbing and boring at the same time. 20 points for the excellent soundtrack.

A (mostly) failed experiment - a disjointed set of shorts, all from different directors, that range from palatable to hilariously bad. I actually like Roth's hyperactive bellhop, though; and the two segments you'd expect to be great are only SLIGHTLY disappointing.

If you're a fan of just one of these directors, this is a film you have to see, just so you can have the pleasure -- or possibly disgust -- of saying you did. I found the final three stories easily watchable, and the last two really quite fun. The first one gets Four Rooms off to a terrible start, however, and that will ruin it for some people. I'm not even sure if it's really all that good, but it was kind of fun and really intriguing, and I recommend it for those reasons alone.

Wildly uneven, but at least Rodriguez and Tarantino know how to entertain. Based on an average of scores. Room 1: 34. Room 2: 45. Room 3: 62. Room 4: 65. Oddly enough, even though it's nowhere near Tarantino's best directing, it might be his best acting.

Four stories, all crap - and T.Roth as the central character; oh what a low this is. The shitty room 1 has the redeeming quality of Ione.S; pretty with titties. Room 2 is just ridiculous and unfunny. Room 3 is mostly annoying up until the decent twist, but that's not making up for it. Room 4 is Tarantino full of himself, and to make it worse he's ass-acting as well. *Preview*: #13#, re-2*, writers/directors RR & QT, cast, oldies(2), R2 }*{ #90s#, story, writers/directors RR & QT, cast.

First room (Anders): A decent start and mood, but it lacks conflict. Second room (Rockwell): Shrill and generally annoying, adds nothing. Third room (Rodriguez): The best of the lot; just plain fun from start to finish. Fourth room (Tarantino): Also great, featuring some superb camerawork. Segments between the rooms are good, too. Uneven, but it's got some gems.

I got the point: there was for example a tune from Fellini's Casanova and Tim Roth was kind of imitating Jerry Lewis in The Bellboy but I didn't really liked the choices they made. The stories were neither for my taste.

You can't help but feel that the lead role was tailored for Rowan Atkinson. Tim Roth is simply not a great slapstick actor and ultimately that's what the role requires. The final two rooms are the usual Rodriguez and Tarantino fair (i.e. highly enjoyable grindhouse.)

A bizarre menagerie from 4 different directors. From a sperm extracting coven to a borderline three-way involving a rather large gun. To the comedic and absurd vision of Rodriguez and finally, the finale, one of the fastest 10 minutes on film. A climactic ending sequence which is blatantly Tarantino. Roth blasts his way through the four sets, swerving between four variations of the English accent and his own hips, adding another personal touch to the free flowing creativity behind 4 rooms.

I have a taste for over the top things these days. I like this kind of collaborative projects and Tim roth really holds the movie together very well with his quirky character.
