The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys

I liked this movie twenty years ago, and now I don't. The performances are good, and I've always liked Jena Malone, but there are too many conflicting movies here, along with a bizarre and unsatisfying ending.

The coming of age piece is the strongest part, even though I don't love the animated segments (the art is cool though) and it seems like a waste of Jodie Foster and Vincent D'Onofrio. The incest plot seems thrown in to give Margie unnecessary trauma and to set up a fight scene between the boys later in the film. Then the ending is so ridiculous that it cancels out anything of substance that happened.
