Entrega a Domicílio

Not the best film I've ever seen, but it is entertaining.

The screenplay was originally written by Kevin Smith (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma) and was then re-written by so many people that his name was omitted from the film. His trademark "Jaws" reference remains!

However, there are bits of dialogue that were obviously Smith's or were at least adapted from his original dialogue.

Worth watching, but don't expect too much!

I really liked this film. Its really fun and amusing and definatly better than alot of similar teen comedies like 'Loser' and 'She's all That' which are better known and got released at cinemas. Rudd and Witherspoon are both very likeable, while the film has a good sountrack and is short so as not to become tiresome. Jokes mostly hit the mark and there are a few which are very 'Kevin Smith-esq', obviously remaining from his much edited original script. If you want to watch a largely harmless, light hearted, and above all a cute and funny teen romance then you could do alot worse than give this one a rent if you can find it.

Rating: 6.5/10

Picked this film up one day at the video store, and was surprised to note (through the IMDb) that it was written by independant icon, Kevin Smith.

Having watched Smith's "Jersey Trilogy" before, I was pleasantly surprised to note that the references to other KS films had been kept down to a minimum, but this could obviously be due to the other writers being around.

In short, this movie's merit came from the wacky, off-beat humor that is so lacking in some films today. Not just a barrage of sexually-orientated jokes (although there were a couple), the film actually made room for a storyline amongst all it's humor.

In short, Overnight Delivery is another good, funny film to come from the mind of Kevin Smith, and actors Paul Rudd and Reese Witherspoon have just enough cool, hip bravado and wit to pull off the roles.

I like watching a movie without expectations, but this love-comedy was well worth the time. I watched this movie only because it had Reese Witherspoon in in, who I am becoming more and more impressed with, particularly in comedies. She steals the scenes in this movie, and is the catalyst for all that happens. It is a surprisingly funny and good movie. Reminds me of Blood Simple (for all the weird things that keep happening) and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (for all the weird things that keep happening). Not a well orchestrated movie, because things are somewhat disjointed (she takes him to the airport, but drops him off at the downtown convention center (reality mistake) and no reason for the cops to be there as they attempt to leave the restaurant after not paying (movie mistake)), but the acting is good and when the writing is right, it is very good.

This movie was surprisingly good. It's not the best-written or most original idea, but the comedy is surprisingly good. Also, Paul Rudd and Reese Witherspoon have great chemistry on-screen, and their comedic delivery is superb. The mail-truck driver is funny, as well. Not to mention that it's got Christine Taylor (you might know her from "The Wedding Singer", "Zoolander", or "Dodgeball").

In the end, it's one of those movies that you'll probably only watch when you have nothing else to do. So the next time you're really bored and have nothing to do, watch this movie- I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
