Love in Kilnerry

I love reading reviews but the one from bosmithla below is offensive and reads more like a personal attack against Daniel Keith. One has to wonder. Apparently, bosmithla has a 25 min YouTube rant in a dirty car slamming Mr Keith and then promoting his own film he uploaded to YouTube for everyone to learn what real filmmaking is.

I give LOVE IN KILNERRY a 7/10. It did it's job. It's cute and funny. I get that the acting is a bit like Clue and theatrical. It did it's job. But it's not a 10. I feel those should be reserved for Lawerence of Arabia, Braveheart, 12 Years a Slave, The Artist, Schindler's List. But a $1 mil directorial debut that went from a small play to megaplexes across the country, I say kudos to Daniel Keith and his team. Ignore the bosmithla's of the world and keep going.

Sorry for the less than creative title, but it's completely in line with the script, acting, editing and quality of this film.

It's like a high school student film - complete with lowbrow crude humor alongside uncomfortably stale and rigid dialogue and an unhealthy dose of naked seventy-somethings. A stunningly prudish film (the word "fornicate" is used liberally), yet with childish crude and lewd elements thrown in the mix randomly - and seemingly to prevent folks from enjoying the kernel of sweetness this film should have.

Indeed, there is a kind thread running throughout, but in today's world where a half intelligent 16 year old can create a compelling, thoughtful and true-to-themselves film on an iPhone, there is no need for this drivel in the broader market.

This is the American Pie for the assisted living set, replete with actors who can't seem to get enough local community theater gigs to satisfy their (long ago) childhood dreams of being actors.

There are so, so many good, small films each year and I appreciate all who try...but this just didn't cut even the must basic mustard. Daniel Keith should use his fading semi-attractiveness to land as many small tv roles he can, while he can...and never again try to write or direct a piece of filmed "entertainment."

This movie, a smash at film festivals (40 awards), needs to be seen! It's funny, charming, and ultimately, an honest look at relationships.

It really just wasn't very good. It felt like I was watching a film of an amateur play. It had a few giggles, but it was predictable, and mostly uninteresting.

This film has a great premise, some goofy fun characters, some truly tender moments between people who just want to live and be happy. Not perfect, but entertaining. Some good acting, great score, and laugh out loud moments.
