Five Star Day

but not more. the story is collection of nice crumbs. Cam Gigander is not inspired option for Jack role. all is a game of glass beads. or blanket of patches.search of answers, a young man and his birthday as axis of homework, trips, meetings, love/hope/friendship slices and the feel of vicious circle. the end - moral lesson, far from credibility. fundamental sin - astrology only like excuse for a new formula of Grail search. nothing else. however, it is not a bad film. only a superficial exercise, it remains an interesting promise. and point for script for another attempt. Jena Malone is perfect axis. and Jake Gibson may be a bider role for another actor.

This had all the makings of a pretty reasonable movie, however, after about 20 minutes into it the lead actor Cam Gigandet becomes so irritating he actually destroys the movie.

The plot is a bit thin, the dialogue is even thinner, but thanks to Cam, he completely ruins it all.

His ridiculous facial expressions and "cool" hand gestures are pathetic - not to mention the fact that everywhere you see him walking around he appears to have a rather large banana stuffed up where the sun doesn't shine.

He seems to think he is something like Brad Pitt, but couldn't pull it off - totally ruined the entire middle of the road movie for me. sorry, but that is my opinion.

Let's be honest here.

When I read a book, I give it about 50 pages to convince to get to the last page.

It is the same for movies. About 20 minutes. I have no problem whatsoever walking out of a movie theatre. But, it does not happen very often. But in this case it did.

The main character is played by an actor who comes across as lazy, pretentious and completely self absorbed.

The directing, filming and editing looked like they were done with no purpose.

And, most of all, the storyline and the initial sequences had no credibility.

Before this film was made, there should have been some rewriting, and in the pre-production stage, the casting of the main character should have been made more carefully.

I enjoyed the actors and actresses in this movie and found this a different but intriguing story line. everyone had a rough birthday but most were able to overcome some pretty terrible events.

This film is about a young man who had a very bad birthday despite his horoscope saying otherwise. He sets out to see if other people born on the same day and at the same place share similar stories.

"Five Star Day" spends a lot of time portraying what happens to several people born on the same day. The events are heart wrenching, and I feel sorry for these people. However, the film is somehow not right, as the characters are not as engaging or enigmatic as hoped. There is not enough love to be a romantic film, and a little distracted as a drama. The debate as to whether star signs are believable or not is rather open ended, leaving the basic premise of "Five Star Day" unanswered. "Five Star Day" is an interesting idea, but it sadly does not fulfill its potential.
