Rooney and Kate Mara as Horny Sisters Lusting for Orlando Bloom Get 6.5-Minute Venice Standing Ovation for ‘Bucking Fastard’

Bucking Fastard is a movie that showcases the peculiarities of Kate and Rooney Mara as sisters Jean and Joan. These sisters share a unique trait that makes them synchronized in their actions and speech, turning every interaction into an amusing in-camera effect. The story follows their journey, beginning with a court-mandated restraining order placed on them due to their continued interest in their ex-boyfriend Gareth.

The sisters' distinctive accents and features add to the oddity of their character, further captivating the audience. However, the plot quickly loses its momentum as the sisters move from one scenario to another, each introduced by a memorable character and a unique twist. The narrative structure resembles an SNL bit, with new characters and scenarios added to maintain the audience's interest.

The film never delves deep into the sisters' background or the conflicts they face, leaving the audience uninterested and disengaged. Although there is an attempt to introduce magical realism towards the end, it fails to deliver the desired impact. The film ends with a punchline that also serves as a statement about the filmmaker's own eccentricity.

Overall, Bucking Fastard offers a glimpse into the weird and wonderful world of Kate and Rooney Mara, but it falls short of delivering a compelling narrative.
