Benutzerrezensionen

While watching this film, I thought that it wasn't bad, but I did have the feeling that it needed some tighting up. The first half of the movie was rough, and just needed some work. All of the character introductions where weak. However, By the time you get to the end, it becomes a rather interesting film. It's worth at least a rental as soon as it is released.

I don't know why this movie didn't come out in more theaters (if it

came out in any at all), as it is one of the most original

small-budget pictures that I have seen in the last few years. The

dialogue is sharp and hilarious while still managing to be realistic.

The characters ring true as well - these are guys you know, talking

about stuff you used to talk about (or still do). While all of the actors

turn in fine performances, Henry Beylin, cast as the mush-mouthed pothead Sam, brings subtle color and vivacity to

what might have otherwise been an unnoticed supporting role.

See this movie!

It appears as though the makers of this movie were striving for something akin to Clerks. Unfortunately the writers had nothing clever, interesting, or even colorfully profane to entertain the audience with.

Ultimately, this movie misses the mark of entertaining with bland dialog being forced out by bad actors.

The only remotely interesting part is how much the person playing the character of Alex is reminiscent of Ben Affleck in his early films.

If you're a timid would-be filmmaker this movie is kind of inspiring from a perspective that even if your movie sucks it might end up in the DVD section of BestBuy one day. Other than that, stay away.

If you're thinking this is a rehash of Clerks or any slacker comedy, think again; while some parts are funny this is the movie that takes place AFTER the slackers have had their fun and start revealing their true selves; in essence it feels like if Cassavettes was in his 20s, making films with Gen X casts. It's more of a look at the young suburban male psyche and while all the people in the film hold your interest, there's few that I'd want to spend time with; it's dead on in its depiction of certain personalities without ever going the by-the numbers route. Great perfs and a touch of pleasant-times-faded-away.. Definitely different, not the generic three-act 'main character overcomes it all" film. Closer to a documentary at times while never looking cheap or home-made. Check out the DVD, as there's more supplemental material than I've seen on any independent DVDs. Good stuff.
