Waffle Street

When the movie started stating this story was based on real life events I was expecting that the main character James Adams was going to accomplish something stunningly remarkable but in the end it's just not that exceptional, on the contrary it's quite dull and non significant. That said the story is still pleasant to follow, with good acting from James Lafferty, Julie Gonzalo and the rest. Danny Glover plays a character we're familiar with for him by now, the old wise guy that has seen it all, nothing spectacular but it works in this movie. I wouldn't say I laughed a lot, just some giggles, but for a dramady it's worth a watch. It made me crave some waffles though.

No, this is not a great movie, and if you're looking for exciting action, move on. But I was surprised to find that the story is one that stayed with me well after I watched the show, in good ways. Unless you're completely unmotivated in life, this movie will probably give you a lift, a little inspiration and when you think about it later, maybe you'll think, "Hey, maybe there's hope for me, too!" I don't think it's corny or sappy, partly because it actually happened.

An entertaining story with good actors and directing and a believable story line. James Lafferty and Danny Glover do a good job.

Remember the character Ricky Fitts played by Wes Bentley in AMERICAN BEAUTY ? This Movie reminded me of him, and his character, plus he looks a little like James Lafferty the lead JIMMY in this Film. Billed a Comedy and there are plenty of laughs and great work by Danny Glover as EDWARD, this Movie is sort of like psychological torture. Jimmy narrates the story so your always on the edge of your seat anticipating the next frame, which is a good thing. Interesting Cast !! Hilarious Premise. Recommend watching after a late night out partying.

Waffle Street is a timely piece about the lessons we all should learn about hard work and rewards. Both of the main characters Jimmy (James Lafferty) and Edward (Danny Glover) have felt the pain of dishonesty and have each taken different roads to restoring faith in themselves while seeing the pressures society places on us all.

Danny Glover (Edward) delivers an excellent performance as the friend and mentor to the silver spooned Jimmy who is struggling with understanding what kind of man he wants to be.

Great family movie and relevant to children and adults alike. The true story makes it an even better, again proving life is always more interesting than fiction. I give it a thumbs up for the whole family.
