Drop Dead Roses

I had a great time at the Long Island showing of this flick, it was so funny. Great to see the cast and director out for the showing. dying to know when I can see this film again, and maybe this time get to talk to that pretty red-headed director.

If you actually have the time to find this movie, don't. The movie really wasn't that bad. It actually has some genuinely great moments. However, it seems that the director lost control of the film somewhere in the middle. The acting was decent (Eddie does a fine job for what I'm guessing is a first timer), however all the comedic moments are wasted because of a hack editing job.

Did the director's little brother edit this?

OK it has some hiccups, but this is fun. It rings true, Brian O'Halloran (Clerks) is GREAT. The film is funny and youthfully energized -it's good in that first time film-makler way. Fresh.

Wish it was longer in Cinemas. Not boring, really funny bits. Music track is often cool if a bit underground. I don't understand why there aren't more mainstream reviews of this picture.

What's more is this is a guy film by a female director writer. Just enough to give it some cool sensibilities. By the way Eddie McGee of Big Brother (the original) fame is really rather good, natural, and this Barbie has a lovely slutty edge -would like to see her in something else too..

A well done, entertaining and quirky comedy, but for me the most pleasant surprise was the leading turn taken by novice actor Eddie McGee.

He had an energy, enthusiasm and earnest freshness that really stood out, making his gruff character seem more charming. He makes you like his character, and carried himself remarkably well for someone whose sole acting exposure was winning a reality tv show. I hope to see more of him in the future, good work by the director in getting so much out of him in his first role!

Shawn and Jason own a business that delivers dead flowers, spoiled chocolates, and bad news messages to unsuspecting victims. If your boss has done you wrong, someone owes you money, or you wish to break someone's heart in two, call these guys. However, Shawn delivers dead flowers one day to a beautiful girl he met once in a pub. Her boyfriend's message is that they are through and he is now sleeping with another woman. Kayla is crushed. Yet, Shawn can not resist hitting on her, even when tears are falling. Is this the beginning of a beautiful relationship? And what about her psycho roomie? This script has so much promise, it truly does. The stars are comely and believable, with nice comic skills. BUT, the leading males visit strip clubs and the sexual situations are of the in-your-face variety. Please do not watch this film if you can not fast forward quickly enough or if your ethics would be mortally wounded. Even so, here's hoping someone will make a kindler, gentler, cleaner version of the movie. This one has its sweet moments, but the its walk on the wild side goes way overboard.
