Coming & Going

Lighthearted, funny and a wonderful watch, the casting is fabulous, Sasha Alexander is amazing, the highlight of the film for me (I am so learning those dance moves!) and Rhys Darby is so cute in a painful way. There isn't a weak link in this cast, the dull Sister, the nosey Aunt and the drunk whale all made me giggle. Great watch for a girls night, makes you believe in love and that there is someone for everyone out there, no matter what. Edoardo Ponti, writes, directs, produces and has a cameo which sometimes puts me off a film buthe does this so well seriously give this lovely film a go.It was made in less than a month and on a small budget but you honestly wouldn't think so, I had to buy a region 1 as it doesn't appear to be out on region 2 but watched it on my laptop several times and still laugh. Buy it you would be mad not to!

The TNT movie Coming & Going was absolutely spectacular!!! The whole cast & crew should be proud of their amazing work. Sasha tweeted me & told me the movie was made in only 23 days & on a low budget. That movie was the best one I've seen in a long time , if not my favorite movie of all time. The main reason I watched it was because of Sasha , but after seeing it I want to watch it again & again just to watch her & the other actors/actresses. If you haven't yet seen it I suggest that everyone sees it , you will be blown away by the awesomeness & genius that is Coming & Going. I have to write one last line & I will use it to say that this movie is incredible. I watched it two times the night it came out.

Rhys Darby's performance as Lee is very good in its believability of character and comic quirkiness. He convincingly plays a doctor who cannot seem to attract women and his shyness in putting himself out there to meet women seems genuine.

He meets Alex (Sasha Alexander) almost by accident: she nearly runs him over in a parking garage. He's been attracted to her for quite some time but never had the courage to even speak to her. The lovely Sasha Alexander subtly shows her acting chops here. Even the movie goer is convinced she finds him interesting because he's in a wheelchair and he cannot convince himself she's attracted to the person inside of him.

This is the perfect rainy day movie, or a lighthearted romantic comedy perfect for those Friday evenings at home. Don't miss it.

Dr. Lee (Rhys Darby) is a transplanted Brit and an OB-GYN working in the Los Angeles area. At work, he is very confident that he can provide excellent care to his patients and good bedside manner, too. But, away from the office or hospital, he is very shy around women. He makes blind dates and then becomes a no-show. His aunt, Irma, lives next door and worries very much about his future romantic happiness. One day, he has a fall and is confined to a wheelchair for a week. Wouldn't you know, a beautiful lady, Alex (Sasha Alexander) accidentally stumbles over him on a sidewalk, not watching where she is going, and a conversation ensues. For the first time in a great while, Lee can actually talk to a woman without hesitation, mostly because Alex takes an interest in him. Soon, they make arrangements to meet again but although Irma asks him to tell Alex the truth, Lee only feels confident that he has Alex's attention when he is seemingly disabled. This charade goes on quite awhile, with Alex admitting she wants to "date" Lee. Now what will he do? Meanwhile, Alex's sister and brother-in-law, a character on a children's show, are pregnant but is the baby the husband's or is the fetus' father the one "afternoon stand" wife had with a co-worker? Here are some problems two couples will have to work out indeed! This is a sweet and funny romcom that should please fans. Yes, it has a small bit of risqué material but, overall, is quite wonderful. (There is one scene involving a Chihuahua that will upset viewers, push the fast forward button). Darby is very funny, resembling Dudley Moore, and Alexander makes a beautiful love interest. All of the other cast members do fine work, too. This viewer also loved the nice costumes, sets, funny situations and well-paced direction. Having trouble finding any romantic comedies at the theater? Stroll over to the nearest DVD store and try to locate this one.

I simply adore this!!!

I read somewhere that this film was completed in less than a month? This is unbelievable when you take into account the high quality of the finished product! Coming & Going is such a well written movie, with an amazing & hilarious cast to compliment it further! I laughed pretty much from beginning to end, & I love it when something happens in a movie that you just don't see coming!!!

Rhys & Sasha were both outstanding in their roles, & I loved seeing the short cameo appearance from Edoardo!!

Thumbs up to all involved!!

*HIGHLY RECOMMEND*
