Love in Kilnerry

It really just wasn't very good. It felt like I was watching a film of an amateur play. It had a few giggles, but it was predictable, and mostly uninteresting.

I don't know who these people are below that claim to have watched the film in their living room, considering the film isn't available to the pubic yet. I saw it at the San Diego Film Festival and the audience laughed through the whole thing and loved it. They had to add another show because it sold out. Then we heard they sold out three shows at the New Hampshire Film Festival. The film has won over 35 awards. It must not be as dreadful as this person claims. Sounds like a jilted ex of someone in the film. The awards speak for themselves. Can't fake those.

This film has a great premise, some goofy fun characters, some truly tender moments between people who just want to live and be happy. Not perfect, but entertaining. Some good acting, great score, and laugh out loud moments.

This movie is so adorable! I was fortunate enough to catch it at the Soho Film Festival in NYC amidst a jam packed house. I absolutely love the premise and it's unique story line. It does a lovely job at showing the power of being unleashed from our emotional and societal confines. Sometimes, all you need is just that little outside impetous to unleash its plocebo effect, and voila, your unblooming buds have finally blossomed! This charming film ushered the audience through laughter, tears, and aws, finally landing us at hope. The actors were phenomenal, delivering wonderful performaces with endearing relationships. My personal favorites were the characters Aednat and Fergal! They definitely hit my heart strings.

Sorry for the less than creative title, but it's completely in line with the script, acting, editing and quality of this film.

It's like a high school student film - complete with lowbrow crude humor alongside uncomfortably stale and rigid dialogue and an unhealthy dose of naked seventy-somethings. A stunningly prudish film (the word "fornicate" is used liberally), yet with childish crude and lewd elements thrown in the mix randomly - and seemingly to prevent folks from enjoying the kernel of sweetness this film should have.

Indeed, there is a kind thread running throughout, but in today's world where a half intelligent 16 year old can create a compelling, thoughtful and true-to-themselves film on an iPhone, there is no need for this drivel in the broader market.

This is the American Pie for the assisted living set, replete with actors who can't seem to get enough local community theater gigs to satisfy their (long ago) childhood dreams of being actors.

There are so, so many good, small films each year and I appreciate all who try...but this just didn't cut even the must basic mustard. Daniel Keith should use his fading semi-attractiveness to land as many small tv roles he can, while he can...and never again try to write or direct a piece of filmed "entertainment."
