Finger weg, Liebling!

The script must have had potential at some stage, why else would a studio touch this poor excuse for a film. At the start I really thought this film was going somewhere, but the actors soon put a stop to that. Some very bad editing and poor camera work nicely topped off with a cast who really don't want to be there.

One scene during a kidnapping, the "F" word in various forms is used every 2 seconds. A drastic attempt at a bit of Tarintino style film making that misses the mark badly...

Give it a miss, don't waste 90 minutes of your time like I did.

I just can't believe that anyone could dislike it! All was excellent - idea, script, dialogues, soundtrack... It's a sight inside human's nature and character. Irony, sarcasm, black humor reveal the absurdity of our everyday life. And the main thing - it makes watchers THINK!!! 10 out of 10!

For the first 70 minutes the film was HILARIOUS. I laughed so hard so many times that my whole family came to see what's going on. The script was good from the very beginning. It was nice and tight {with a matching sound-score} all the way . but towards the end i began to feel like ' maybe it's going a bit to far?'.It kind of became too implausible to be funny. Still, it's a good comedy.here,i must say something about the acting. it wasn't very good. actually it did somewhat bad to the whole film. all the smaller actors were better than the two central ones, especially better than the lady. so, do i advise you to watch it? yes, i do. it is definitely worth seeing, especially if you don't have any problem with severed fingers.if you do feel squirmy,watch it still. just don't look at the severed end, that's all.

What happened to this film? I saw it two years ago at the Sundance Film Festival and was blown away with the rest of the audience. Recently, I got to wondering about it and... Where is it? I mean with all the junk that comes out, and with these films (and filmakers)...? I don't understand. I mean the actors were great, all up and comers. Not just the two leads which I remember vividly as an audacious couple, but also all the supporting actors. Particularly Danny Hoch. He was a riot! And I also remember the soundtrack which was a marvel. Anyway, anybody hear about this film or know what happened... let me know. Man, it's a real pity if more people don't see this film and many of the others that were shown that year. What happens to all those films anyway?

Liev Schreiber plays a husband who wants to have sex with his very pregnant wife played by Caroleen Feeney. They have chemistry together. Well when she is cutting carrots, she accidentally cuts off her husband's finger. She suspects that he is cheating on her and wants evidence. What begins as a simple plan to withhold his dismembered finger becomes a series of events to last the whole day and into the night. They go to their best friends house where there is confrontation and later to the bank where they get involved in a holdup and hostage situation but it's the burglars who are spooked. They end up in the hospital where even there. She won't let up on his cheating. She demands to know the truth. What could have been a silly farce of a movie becomes realistic although it's hard to believe you can drive through the Holland Tunnel and Garden State Parkway and Turnpike without paying a toll.
