Amor por Acidente

This movie is between parody and satire. It is showing politicians as shallow turncoats that are after their needs and caprices.

I guess bunch of people did not like representation of congress in this way but it is almost correct.

Nice bunch of actors. Jessica Biel beautiful as ever. Kids were great with viral in the movie.

Movie is better critic on Health care that Michael Moore's "Sicko".

Nice movie for relaxing and fun, even better if you are tired of politicians. This is one great comedy with serious message.

People will be people.

The wit and conceits are some of the best I've seen in a while. Super script. I loved it from the moment the swaggering trooper pulls up on his bike at the retro diner, his persona is written to a T. The engagement episode is to die for. Then the conceit of the nail, and the turn coat trooper.

I had to love it when the protagonist is told one side effect could be that she is likely to loose all kinds of inhibitions, which could be good when it came to making love.

Protagonist, "Maybe I can finally have an orgasm" Trooper quasi fiancé, "Honey that is so private. I already told you that 50 to 60 percent of women can't orgasm from intercourse." She, "What about you starting gentle like I asked, ant then taking it at an angle that I really like?" He,"Anyway, so..." So true.

The characters were all zany but believable. The politics were over the top with the right versus left: a moon army base station, versus a bill for catastrophic accidents health care like a nail in the head. It was all good irony and satire.

The making love scene in the rookie congressman's office was one of the best I have seen staged in a long time... nothing was shown but hands, legs, and things getting broken.

The aunt with her cigarette, and scalpel in hand, throwing back whiskey to steady the hands....too much.

I loved the fact that there was no profanity.Great actors. I loved everything about this. The dancing in the end was great. Actually watched it once while I was getting ready for work, belly laughing at some of the lines, certain ones subtle but significant if you listen up, then watched it again when I got home after dinner. Will watch it once more with my significant other. You watch it too. :)

This is somehow a black comedy with over-the-top situations and acting, with a mild, to-late-for-that lampoon about politics and government.

It is an expensive film. 26 millions are too much for what it really is.

The style it reminds movies from other decades. You even got Pee-wee Hermann in a secondary yet prominent role.

PLOT: It's about a young waitress who has a freaky accident that changed her life. She can't have health care and travels to Washington with some other mishaps to pass a health-care bill, only to realize the true face of politics.

Well, it is less than it sounds. The movie fails to feel big in that manner. The cast is OK and is doing its best to work with the weird script and material. Jessica Biel looks good and you can admire James Marsden's and Jake Gyllenhaal's effort to give life to their awkward characters. Tracy Morgan is also in this showing his lack of comedic talent, trying to deliver some deadpan oneliners.

There is song and a dance at the end that is somehow entertaining. You can fast forward to that.

"You can't fix a brain with crazy ideas." Alice (Biel) has everything she wants in life. A job she loves and is good at, a loving family and a boyfriend who has just asked her to marry him. Right after the proposal a freak accident happens and she is shot in the head with a nail. With her life falling apart around her she sees Congressman Birdwell (Gyllenhaal) on the TV and thinks he is the answer to her problems. This movie is pretty much exactly what you would expect it to be. Funny in parts, pretty predictable, little generic but at the same time not a terrible movie. Every once in a while it's nice to just put a movie on without having to think about it and just enjoy yourself. This is that type of movie. There really isn't too much else to say about this one. I liked it enough, but wouldn't watch it again and nothing to rush and see, but I have seen worse. Overall, a generic, predictable movie that is a decent watch. A decent date movie. I give this a B-.

"Accidental Love" is a film which had HUGE production problems. The filmmakers ran out of money and the film sat for years. And, it was so famous for this that it was an entry in the book "The Greatest Films You'll Never See". Then, after being auctioned off years later, the film was completed...though many of the folks who had been working on the project refused to return to complete it! As a result, you have a movie that is, at times, a bit incomprehensible and confusing. Again, when you are trying to salvage a project, this isn't all that surprising.

What I DID find surprising were the reviews. Despite the weird way in which the film was completed, it was, at least in many parts, quite enjoyable....but there are quite a few reviewers that give it scores of 1 and talk as if it's the worst film ever made. Well, it simply isn't...or even close...to being the worst film. So why do so many attack the movie? Perhaps it's because the folks were angry about the film being in favor of national healthcare or the gay angle tossed into the story (completely out of the blue) towards the latter part of the movie. All I know is that I am guessing that folks hated it so much because of the film's message...which doesn't seem 100% fair. On the other hand, the film is at times so confusing and disjoint, I also couldn't understand a few reviews that gave the movie 10s and 9s. How could a film that took almost a decade to complete AND without all the crew and actors get a 9 or 10?! Both extremes seem unfair....and the truth is somewhere in the middle.

The first 30 minutes of the film (parts of which were added much later) worked very well. While you would think having a woman getting a nail shot into her head sounds unfunny, the whole thing was handled well and was funny. It was only when the afflicted woman went to Washington, DC, that things began to become confusing and, at times, kind of dumb. It's all a real shame, as there really was a germ of a great idea for this film...but after a while it just seemed to become incomprehensible and bizarre just for the sake of being bizarre. A mess...but a very interesting mess. Perhaps they should have just left this one on the shelf...though it was, occasionally, quite fun.
