Winding Roads

My wife and I caught Winding Roads in St. Louis and were pleasantly surprised. Finally, a movie about regular people dealing with regular issues. We are so tired of special effects and flashy filmmaking with no substance. This film was great and the acting was phenomenal. The lead actor - Kimberly Quinn -has quite a career ahead of her - kudos to the director as well.

I caught the Winfemme screening of this film in Los Angeles, and was a bit disappointed by it. The performances delivered are solid overall, though a few of the characters just fall flat. Unfortunately there's a few major plot problems I couldn't get over, and some portions did drag with really slow pacing where you're just waiting for something interesting to happen. The actors generally did good jobs, though, and James Marsters in particular delivered a nice performance.

As a James Marsters fan he was the reason I bought this film but after realising he's not in it that much I really got into the actual story and really enjoyed it. Its a sweet story of love, heartache and the pains of becoming mature and responsible.

I'm not really a lover of Rachel Hunter's acting but I was surprised to learn her character was by far the best and most complex and the writing for her character (as well as the others) was pretty special.

This is the perfect film for a rainy Sunday afternoon particularly if you've experienced any type of loss be it love, a death or that sweet innocent belief of true love and happy ever afters.

For Marsters fans this film is very different to anything you would expect of him and really highlights how talented an actor he truly is.

I saw this film as a James Marsters fan and was truly not disappointed by his performance. He and Kimberly Quinn were fantastic together. I can't get some of the depth of feeling they both portrayed out of my mind. The other actors, another being well liked one of mine, Michael Weatherly of Dark Angel fame( very small part) were good too. I felt the stories were compelling and this movie was well worth my watching. I will be honest there was a few flow problems and I'm not sure if it was the script or editing but you should know it was there. It didn't matter to me this is on my DVR permanently and soon to be on a tape. I'll watch it again!.... Yes because of James' performance but the others were good too, because honestly I couldn't just watch it for him... I'm not that far gone of a fan.

Although I hated the ending. It left everything all open. It was a kinda sad movie too. Really wanted to know how things went between the characters.
