You Can't Say No

This is a solid film, funny, sweet and timely, well-conceived and well-acted, with beautiful cinematography featuring California's Sonoma County. Dialogue feels natural and improvised at times, with an exquisite supporting role by legendary Peter Fonda as an eccentric, aging nudist parent. The film has strokes of mastery and restraint, feels contemporary but has an old school pacing reminiscent of early Linklater and 1980s Schepisi, chanelling 1950s Hitchcock. Keep an eye on Hus Miller.

My wife and I were disappointed in this film. The acting wasn't very good and the story had holes in it. The game was to tell the other person something to do that they can't say no to but if you didn't do it you just lost the game. Doesn't lead to much suspense. Near the end, she says she has one more question but none of the others where questions so that was odd. The 3 way scene was just uncomfortable and there were way too many body scars that made no sense in the story. We paid $3.99 to rent this and felt we wasted 1 hour and 30 minutes and $3.99. Our advice is watch anything else. Absolutely anything

Not a masterpeice but worth watching. Good, sometimes clever script. Interesting, well developed, surprising characters. Peter Fonda was great.

I was lucky enough to catch this at SXSW and it's so much fun. I've loved Peter Fonda since I first saw 'Easy Rider' and he's still a delight in this as the wise-cracking dad. It's a fun romp but with a deeper story and a real heart. I'd never seen Hus Miller in anything before but I thought he was really convincing in the male lead. I've got a major crush on Margarite Moreau from 'The Wet Hot American Summer' series on Netflix and she's great in this as the female lead. This is the kind of movie where you leave the kids with the babysitter and go see it on a date night. You walk out feeling a sense of the possibilities of renewed love. I wish there were more movies like this around.

OK, so the acting wasn't top notch, but the story and sentiment were pretty good. All relationships have ups and downs, but the message of hope, mixed with the main characters' desire to rekindle lost feelings, was a positive one. I found myself hoping he didn't stray again with the hot girl he met even though the outcome was predictable. Rating reflects the formulaic approach, but overall I enjoyed this RomCom.
