Feel Good Movie of the 90's, 26 December 2000
Author: andrew_kluck from Los Angeles, California

54, or Club Fifty-four as it is called is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Mike Myers from Austin Powers plays Steve Rubell the Owner of a sexy nightclub in the heart of New York City. Ryan Phillipe from Homegrown plays the Electric Giggolo dubbed "Shane 54" who is discovered by rudell after going to 54 one night for a big party there. This is the Era where sex is safe and the drugs are not so harmful. All the Directors of 54, Well Done! Ryan and Mike you will always be my heroes!
