Heaven or Vegas

This is a very beautiful bittersweet love story! What a great job with the filmography, and what an original story. I wasn't sure what to expect as performances out of two such "beautiful people" as Yasmine and Richard, but what they did was so sweet and real that by the end I loved them both! Can't wait to see more from Director/Writer Gregory C. Haynes, he is an inspiration.

This is a movie which starts out as a gritty, yet appealing, romance. Unfortunately, it has a very unsettling horror episode in it. If you don't like watching murderous men preying on women, skip this movie. I liked the movie up to this part, then I wished that I hadn't seen it.

A great performance by Jasmine Bleeth and Richard Grieco. Two lost souls who find each other in a big city, decide to seek out their fate together as they drive across the country. "Navy" (Richard Grieco) was to seek his independence and new life while "Rachel" (Yasmine Bleeth) hopelessly discovers the shelter her knight in shining armor can provide her. Their acting is well supported and complemented by a few others on the screen. Newcomer to the screen, James Ecklund ("Cole") exhihits a powerful twist in the romance and destiny of Navy and Rachel when he takes advantage of her gullibility. Ecklund defines how "looks can be deceiving" in this drama. He provides an outstanding performance on his screen debut.

This film really is not very good. Plain and simple - the two leads are best suited for television ( although Yasmine has shown promise since this film, see "Baseketball"). The lone bright spot of this film is Monica Potter as Lilly. She is radiant and shows wonderful comic timing. Of course since this film she has become Hollywood's brightest young star!!! Keep watching this wonderful person and tremendous actress, the best is definitely yet to come!!!!!

Words just can't describe how I feel about this movie... it's one of my favorite. Even though I normally don't like romantic movies, I just love this one. The story is so sweet. Also, the story, the characters, the music, everything is just perfect and the actors (especially the main actors, gorgeous Yasmine Bleeth and Richard Grieco) seem to be made for this movie. The movie is not just a love story, it's more about dreams and despair, you won't get bored.

I'm a fan of Yasmine, but I think even if you are not a fan of her you will most likely love her in this movie. I think it's the best and most touching acting she has done so far. I have to warn you, this might sound silly, but if you're male, you'll probably fall in love with her when watching this movie!

Highly recommended - it's out on DVD, go watch it...
