Avis à la une
Ok, for starters, I live in Toledo, Ohio. No-I'm not going to go into one of those righteous rants about how much better my city is, personally I don't care that much..but COME ON! It didn't even look like Toledo...all the high rises were wrong and our downtown area doesn't have cute little Italian family eateries, it's dilapidated and dirty. For the most part suburbia is in Maumee. Also, the mobsters from Detroit were totally unbelievable, and I hate to say that because I love Christopher Walken. I thought maffioso's had to be fairly intelligent... To be nice-Living in Ohio isn't the same as being retarded. We have our share, but really! Rent at your own risk, better yet, wait until it comes on network tv.
there are some movies, that seems bad, but they're not. kiss toledo goodbye is a kind of movie that you cant count on anybodies reference or review. I like it very much, there were weird dialogs, weird jokes. but It cheered up my sunday morning. and 3.9 is not the real value of this movie
An unfunny comedy with a silly premise that moves arbitrarily from situation to situation with little or no regard for narrative sense. In short, a quintessential product of the incompetent school of filmmaking.
I won't bother with the story or character details, since they don't make much sense anyway. At points, the characters suddenly appear in some new setting and situation, with no clue where they are or how they got there. In some cases, the filmmakers apparently tried to correct this after completing the main shooting, adding some voice-over dialogue on top of exterior shots by way of exposition.
The comic and dramatic situations are hackneyed, contrived and unconvincing. The dialogue is uninteresting and unnatural. Some scenes seem to have been improvised (I mean that in a bad way). From time to time, it looks like there was no script for a scene, just "the characters argue about something, then stop."

all i wanted to comment on was the fact that the creators of this film seemed to do absolutely no visiting of Toledo. wherever it was that they shot this movie looks nothing like Toledo and nothing referenced or shown in the film is in Toledo not even the skyline shown in the film. i mean couldn't they just shoot the film in Toledo for crying out loud or at least try to learn about the city before trying to represent it on film. the movie itself was horrible too but with a great cast. i just was so upset as a Toledo filmmaker myself that they would disrespect my city so much by ignoring it and using the name in its film.
"Kiss Toledo Goodbye" is a very imperfect movie. Essentially it is a very sloppy movie. The editing is a real chop shop job, with absolutely zero flow to the story. Characters disappear for many minutes, then suddenly reappear for no particular reason. Christopher Walken gives a rather uninspired, typical quirky performance. The combination of attempted comedy along with a lot of gun banging goes nowhere. Especially weak is the "surprise" ending that is totally unbelievable and makes what precedes it even less compelling. In summary, do not let the presence of Christopher Walken tempt you into watching this, as it is a very lame excuse for entertainment. - MERK
