This thing. My boyfriend says the insurance company is gonna pay me, but I don't know. Your boyfriend know you're a stripper? He works for the government, so, like, same thing. Um, I could, uh If you're not busy. I can't take your money. This isn't sexy. I had an ex-girlfriend who was in a wheelchair. I liked it. I swear. See those steps up to the champagne room?
That's where we do our lap dances. I could wheel you up there. Come on, it'll be fun. Thanks for the confidence boost. Good work. Where are your clothes? Boy, you changed so fast. You got her You know, I think she's really hurt. Don't do it, John. No, I'm serious. So, somebody put her up to this, and the faster she's out of that wheelchair, the faster she's back to doing what she loves. She had an accident.
She was driving, and somebody rear-ended her. In the fucking desert? Textbook squat-and-swoop. I need 45 bucks. It was five bucks to get in, five for a drink, and the rest for the dance. They charged you to get in? You get a receipt? Give me my money! Okay, five. Oh, I see what you mean about this form.
It's really complicated. What should I put down about Tasty I didn't say it was complicated. No, I mean What should I put down? We're on highway Where's the accident site? JOHN: Kel-baker.
Turn off the headlights! Thank you. Can I help you fellas? We're just passing through, investigating an accident. I don't think so. This here is the Nature Compound. Nothing artificial or You got a gun. We use the minimum technology required. Shoes for our feet, guns to ward off foreign elements. You've got a hat. Right you are, my friend. But you still can't go through. And if you proceed through the gate, we will use force to stop you from entering the compound!
Of course, there is the option of joining us. Hats off! You think we're in trouble? MAN: Take 'em off! We have to turn back. You can't be serious. Find a hotel, if you like. JOHN: What about them? JOHN: Hello? It's me. Who's "me"? Oh, me. So, whatcha doin'? JOHN: Nothing. I was thinking that Do you like that?
Wow, you don't sound that into it. I can't really talk. Oh, yeah. Tell me what's happening. We're, uh Yeah, so I can't talk.
Of course. Well, good luck. Be careful. Call me when you can. I love you. Ha ha! Okay, secret agent man. I'll talk to you later. Not every night, but a lot. Lately, I've been having it again.
MAN: Come up here, Princeton! Tell Jesus why you No, you've got to strip down naked! Okay, okay! Strip down naked in the desert! You're not naked. Neither are you. You're on national park land. There's no vagrancy. Or smoking! Are you crazy? Our warning index is orange We're trying to We're investigators. Fraud division. And sleeping in your car? We got stopped last night by some crazy naked guys with guns. Right over there. Well, I was on duty last night.
Didn't see a thing. Yes, you did. I'm gonna let you two go with a warning. Vagrancy isn't permitted on federal land.
We don't want any trouble. No, fuck that. Don't back down to him. Stand up to him like you did the naked guys last night. They backed down last night from my man here. Fuck him up, John! Do the thing, man. Do the No, no. Could you tell us where the Buick Wildcat was rear-ended last week? You mean that nice young schoolteacher who hurt her neck? Follow me. What was that? What do you mean, what was that? What was what? He seemed like a nice guy.
Yeah, you seem like a nice guy. I am a nice guy. Yeah, you are. What is this bullshit act? I'm the one who got Tasty D. I'm the one that talked down the naked guy. You asked the naked guy about his hat. But naked guy left us alone, didn't he? The other naked guys took off their hats, too. I'm doing all the heavy lifting.
You didn't get Tasty D. I got her for you. I got every woman in there and the gay bartender. You mean with that outfit? I can dance like James Brown. She's cute You're psycho. Maybe I should show her my James Brown dance. I was the first one on the scene. The woman who owned the Buick Wildcat She complained of shooting pains. And the guy who rear-ended her The back of the Buick was all bashed up.
How's a tiny little Honda gonna bash up a steel-frame muscle car? It's not. That's why it's called "fraud".
More like it had a hole punched in it. The guy who owned the Honda He had this big-faced watch you see those rich guys wear. I love those. Oh, man, this one was a real beaut. Anyway, he felt really terrible, said he'd be willing to pay for her car to get towed.
Do you know where they towed the car to? You need Smitty. Go to the county fair where they have the sideshow acts and ask for the Flame Lord. That's Smitty. Why would I be asking for Smitty the Flame Lord? He goes on contract runs to supplement his income. Flame Lord doesn't pay? You'd think. Thanks for your help. Hey, no worries. I'm sorry about the misunderstanding.
Didn't I? JOHN: It's not easy to find a partner. You want someone nice. But what does that mean? Not nice?
Where are you? How's it going? I found out that the injury claim is fraudulent. You did? But last night, things got kind of hairy, but I talked our way out of it. And now I found out where the vehicle is. I mean, I found the guy who towed it, so we're going there.
I knew it. Townsend said you might make Adjuster Level 6. About that Townsend and I are finished, okay? I need you to know that. I already decided before you even gave me the hair tug. The love tug. Do you like James Brown? I gotta go. But thanks for talking. Anytime, Johnny Rocket. Okay, I love you, too. Just fine, James Brown. Well, he brought me to one carnival. But it was just like this. Hey, how about I gotta play this.

View All Critic Reviews Mar 30, What did they see in this film? There is absolutely nothing about it that deserves attention. It is unfunny, incoherent, and poorly written, directed, and edited. The word 'forgettable' has never suited a film better than "Saint John of Las Vegas. Stephen E Super Reviewer. Mar 08, After a long string of bad luck gambling in his hometown of Las Vegas, John Steve Buscemi decides to try to live a normal life. He's moved to Albuquerque and works for an auto insurance company.
One day he gets offered a chance to move up by helping with the investigation of an accident and trying to prove it's fraudulent. The accident took place outside of Vegas, and his old gambling addiction comes back and he's once again at the mercy of temptation. Buscemi does a fantastic job with such a subpar movie. Characters, acting, and weird Nevadaness made this movie for me. I knew nothing about this movie, but ended up catching it on a movie channel recently.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and watched parts over again. It lacked a lot of action and it didn't really have many punchlines, but I found this lack of predictability to be one of the most endearing parts about the movie. While the movie is not at all predictable and often pretty absurd, it does not feel as if the absurdity relies on weird twists or surprises. While the situations feel bizarre, the situations and characters are much closer to reality than most everything else Hollywood puts out.
I thought the acting was great, the characters bizarre, and the situations hilarious. Needless to say I found it very compelling and funny, and i did not need any Dante references to appreciate it.
