Mind the Gap

Though some of the acting in this film isn't incredible, it's certainly competent. I think Eric Schaeffer is a very talented actor and director, he did a great job with this film. The five stories that are told are intriguing and the transitions between them are smooth.

I'd recommend this movie if you are looking for an interesting collage of characters and plots rounded up by a blissfully happy ending. It's nice to see a movie with a complex plot and fascinating characters. It will leave you delighted with humanity and wondering what happened to each character.

I, for one, really enjoyed this movie. I saw it on a satellite movie channel and am very tempted to go and rent it... possibly even buy it when I can get my hands on it.

The movie reminds about everyday life. You meet people who may smile or laugh but deep inside they are not happy. As you watch the movie it feels like you are living it. Each five characters had their own problems yet were laughing and smiling trying not to show what they were hiding deep inside. Each five of them took life on their own and went after their destinies. I adored Malissa's acts. Her mother told her she hated her, but yet Malissa never quit taking care of her sick mother. After her mother's death she became a traveler leaving her home and later on her car and exploring the world. There is a lot to learn from each five characters. "Mind The Gap" is the movie that will never bore you even if you watch it day after day.

I watched this movie in the middle of the night when I couldn't sleep. I had no idea what to expect, having never heard of the movie, and was pleasantly surprised.

What an amazing and diverse group of characters, all very complex. By the end I cared deeply for all of them.

The story lines were riveting and unpredictable. In the beginning, I couldn't imagine where this movie was going but it was a pleasure to watch it evolve.

I have not had a movie affect me like this in a very long time. Some very powerful and emotional messages....I highly recommend it and can't wait to see it again.

I had little to no expectations of this film and knew absolutely nothing about it. I was flabbergasted. It is really an excellent film. It made me cry but in a really good way. It is just very beautiful and moving. It makes you want to believe in something. I saw his other film, If Lucy Fell, and it meant nothing to me, I forgot about it after watching it. But this one is a total gem. I almost feel like it's my special little secret. But I want to share it with everyone because it really made me happy. That's just what it does. It makes you smile and it makes you feel something for the characters (the acting is fantastic). I acquired several crushes by the end of the film. Please, go to your local independent video retailer and rent it (or better yet buy it) right now.

I watch so many movies, most of them become like wallpaper to my life, barely worthy of comment other than the 90 minute-long void in my life that they fill.

'Mind the Gap', however, was such enthralling viewing, and filled with so many points that made me question my own actions in life, that when the titles came up at the end, I actually felt that I had spent my time wisely, and felt so uplifted I had a tangible 'up-ness' about me! Superb acting, well-shot, and the intermingling stories provide a plot rich in human experience.

The most note-worthy film I have seen in a (sadly) long, long time! :-)
