Sam & Janet

This is, by far, the stupidest movie I have ever seen. I can't imagine how this film won a Best Screenplay award. As a matter of fact, I can't even imagine how this film was ever made. Everything about it - especially the dialogue, plot, and acting - was hokey and juvenile and embarrassing. Nothing about the movie was believable. How many times was it necessary to show Sam shirtless in bed? How many times was it necessary to show Janet staring out at the ocean? Why was Gary Busey in the movie? On the plus side, there were some lovely visuals (those 10 seconds of colored leaves were beautiful) and Oklahoma City looks like a very nice place to visit.

An unexplained and poorly edited title sequence made me question my choice of watching this movie, but decided to stick it out long enough to fairly judge it. After a literally painful first 30 min., I wanted to turn it off, but couldn't. I thought that I had already invested days in watching it. The plot is unrealistic, the script is awful. I have no idea how it won any awards. I keep wondering if people saw the same movie I did. The two (and only) redeeming parts of the movie were the bartender and the chocolate lab, Brady. That's it. Save yourself an hour and a half and knit a scarf. Honestly, this one's not worth your time.

UUMmmmm OK words cannot describe how bad this movie is. I have seen other peoples comments and I swear to god I think they are paid to do this, or the director himself wrote these comments. I should have taken the hint that it was going to be bad when on the back of the DVD cover they have comments from IMDb users instead of an actual critic....I mean the director is probably the one wrote these comments anyway! Guys saying they liked this...come on! Even I knew this was *&^%, and I'm a girl! It was horribly acted, extremely cheesy, very predictable and omg did I mention cheesy. MOst of the movie consists of the two main characters cuddling everywhere and do "coupley things in like 50 locations. Then when they break up they have about 50 shots of each of them looking out on the ocean and thinking and crying in bed...omg did I mention this was a bad movie!

This is the first time I have ever written a response to a movie. Sam and Janet in my opinion was not worth the time I invested in watching. It dragged on. To me it felt like a B movie and I did not understand how lifetime gave it a 3 star rating. I have watched movies that have had no stars that have been more entertaining and worth my time.

I had to see it through to the end just like a book that you've been reading just to finish it. I felt that the actors seemed insincere and definitely like they were reading a script. I guessed the ending. Even though I am a sucker for a happy ending this movie didn't make me happy or even restore my faith in true love as much as I was just happy it ended. I had hoped to find more in Sam and Janet but was left at a loss.

I was flipping through the channels and came across this movie. After 10 minutes I was ready to fall asleep, and I had only been up for an hour. I found it choppy at times with the way the conversations flowed, as if, well it was scripted. I did not find the characters believable. I guess for a first movie its OK. But to me it looks like a movie someone would make using a hand held video camera and there friends, on a bored Sunday afternoon. There is no emotion in it, the characters bored me to tears. I barely made it through this movie and would not tell anyone they should watch it. OK well if your having a hard time falling asleep at night, watch this movie, it will put you to sleep in no time. This is my first review, so its probably not that great and choppy itself. But I just could not, not comment on this movie
