Realistic comedy/drama

When I first started watching this film I wasn't so sure I was going to like it at all. I just kept watching and gradually got hooked into it and realized, hey, this is a pretty good picture. There is a lot of realism in this movie and it really says a lot of positive things about honesty in a relationship. The comedic timing is brilliant. It was directed very well and I really liked all of the characters. I want to watch it again. Hope you will sit down and enjoy this film someday too.

Wonderful Little Film, A good example of Indy Film making.

This was a delightful example of the under $500k Indy Film. Shot in rented houses, and relatives backyards, this film had acting and flow that was superior to many big studio films. Joey Slotnick was good as the pained lead character, but Sam Robards stole the scenes as his lecherous brother. It was a good turn for party of 5 star Paula Devic, and another place to see the a short clip of Indy film standard L. Christian Mixon. All in all it is a good watch, and a fine date flick.

Cute romantic comedy

This movie isn't earth shattering, or life altering, but it's entertaining. Joey Slotnick plays well as an engaged writer still attracted to his ex-girlfriend. There are some cute little jokes here and there, and some promising moments as far as the director goes. All in all it's a good movie to watch on HBO (where it is shown every now and again) and pulls off being funny and romantic at the same time (something rarely done in "romantic comedies" which normally choose one or the other.) I would recommend checking it out if you have a chance, you won't feel like you wasted and hour and a half.

With was a solid low budget independent film. The film makers should be proud.

I felt this movie had all the makings of a very solid low budget independent film. The writing was fresh, witty, and seemed fairly true to life. The dialogue seemed to fit the characters to a tee and the casting was very fitting.

In the top 10,000 out of a zillion.

Take a couple of young adults who are destined to fall in love, mix in sundry family and friends, create lots of humorous situations so everyone can talk about their views on love, sex, commitment, etc....and you've got another of a zillion formula romantic comedies. "Dinner and Driving" is a tad fresher, a tad more humorous, and a tad more creative than the average. Worth a watch for the bored channel surfer.
