We Married Margo

What a great movie, a tangy, tasty slice of life, a dead-on combination of edgy, New York/Jersey everyman angst and West Coast/Left Coast laidback-but-so-very-self-awareness!! I laugh out loud every time I see this, anticipating lines and still enjoying them as they come up. The cameos are perfect. The rapid-fire pace may be exhausting as some critics have observed, but this is very typical of a NYer's conversational patterns. Anyone who's moved from one coast to the other and taken their city sensibilities with them, and anyone who's ever been a dumpER or a dumpEE will find something very familiar about the scenarios presented. Mr. Shapiro and Mr. Dozier should collaborate again; at any rate, I wish them both success in their respective romantic ventures!

This is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a LONG time. It's funny from beginning to end, and very different. I'm an IFC addict, and I really wish it was available on DVD, so I could watch it over and over. Great job with the acting and story, and who would have thought it would have so many walk on additions?

This was a clever, cute movie; I happened upon it on IFC while clicking through the channels. The presentation is fresh, these guys definitely don't take themselves or their predicaments seriously. I even laughed out loud a couple of times, which almost never happens at movies nowadays. I would definitely recommend scoping it out.

I love this movie and watch it whenever I see that it's playing on IFC.

It's one of those films I'd like to have in my DVD collection--easy & amusing through many viewings.

It never fails to lift my spirits.

That was the end of my review--short & sweet, but I see that I must write more in order to have my review included here, so:

The two stars (and writers) are wonderful. The celebrity cameos are fun & surprising. Fat Boy the dog is one of my favorite canine performers. Surely there's an award for him somewhere.

Unfortunately, this delightful film is not available on DVD. How is that possible? Surely there must be a cult following (even if small) for We Married Margo.

Pay no attention to Xabbu's comments. This movie is a riot from the start. Fast paced comedy based on real life experiences between the two male leads, Rock & Jake,(William Dozier & J.D. Shapiro) and their mutual "ex", Margo. Jillian Johns does a great job as Jake's on again-off again girlfriend Tracy. One gathers the impression that Margo is a man-eater as she runs through partners quickly and ruthlessly. Cameos made by established Hollywood names sprinkled throughout the film lend an air of credibility to the story, though the leads are for the most part unknown talents. The movie is funny enough that I go out of my way to watch it every time it airs on Independent Film Channel (IFC) and I've probably seen it half a dozen times already. I would quickly purchase a copy of this film if it were available on DVD. If you need a movie to lift your spirits or just appreciate a good laugh, We Married Margo is for you.
