Irresiiistible!

This independent film doesn't follow the usual Hollywood prescribed script with the neat and tidy happy ending for all. I think that's why I enjoyed it so much. It was unpredictable. The film follows a young woman and shows us some of the choices she makes - most of them heavily influenced by her upbringing. Rather than have the character of Kenna experience some cathartic change and start on a new path in life, the movie simply unravels the course that she in on and ultimately continues on. It may not be as polished as a block buster, but it has charm. Top acting and the filming was beautiful. The carny scenes interspersed throughout the film were entertaining all on their own - some great characters hidden in there.

I can not agree more with "craning10" this film was a waste of my time and I do not recommend it to anyone. Craning10 said it all no story, bad acting ( very bad acting ), bad camera work, worst producing I've seen in a long time. Towards the 15min mark I started to fast forwards because I couldn't stand it any more; even the comedy was bad. Although I actually liked the music, I think they played a few blue classics and some nice vocals too. But other than those rare moments the film sucked. The plot should be the one girl that is cheating on 2 guys due to the lack of contact and the abandonment from her mother, but it just ends up making a big mess of an already messed up movie. Is like trying to put together a distorted mental image directly from someone's head without any guidelines, needless to say what you end up with is a big abstract mess, which in this case has some bad acted sex scenes and a half covered, semi-transparent, half a nipple slip from a supper hot actress.

If you are an aspiring independent filmmaker, you must see this film. It will give you immense optimism when you see how low the bar must be to get a film into distribution. How they got Bradley Cooper to do this movie is beyond comprehension. The production quality of this film is abhorrent. The editing is amateurish, the fades ill-timed and misplaced. As to the sound, there is a scene where they tried to overdub the dialog and it looks like a Japanese Godzilla moment. There are moments when the audio is tinny and distant. And that is before you get to the essence itself. The protagonist character has no redeeming virtues. She is portrayed as a whiny, slutty, incessantly complaining, baggage-laden woman and it belies belief that the two male characters would have any reason to be infatuated with her. We simply do not care whether she redeems herself, and one is compelled to yell to Bradley Cooper to get out of there…both her bedroom and the movie. There is a particularly pretentious attempt at a montage that fails miserably…a crane shot above an empty art gallery where the protagonist is having her debut…the director shows the crowd filtering into the gallery..with interminable lingering on the small crowd, then dissolve to a small crowd, followed by a still small crowd, followed by…a still small crowd…as if they just couldn't get enough extras to sacrifice themselves on the altar of this embarrassingly misguided effort. The final assault comes in the form of the script. Most of the actors...Cooper excepted... look as if they are reciting lines off a cue card. The closing scene voice over is incomprehensible and leaves you shaking your head to remove the glaze from your eyes. To get this film sold to Liongate and into distribution, there had to be some very serious "Bending of the Rules"

Seriously , when I first saw this film I expected good things from it since Bradley Cooper was in it as well as a few lesser known actors . Instead I got a film that had to have had the worst acting I have ever seen in a film that spent more than 1,000 dollars to make . The storyline is so non existent that I was waiting for something interesting to happen until I had to fast forward just in hope that I could find an interesting part to watch but the acting just kept getting worse and worse and the editing was not much better . As for the music in this film , well honestly I have heard better in a cheap porn movie then in this piece of garbage . Save your money if you are thinking of renting it and even if you get to see it for free , believe me you will not make it all the way through to the end , that I promise you .

I got this movie since the cover looked good and I do enjoy Bradley Cooper. The child actors (especially the girl) are terrible. The cinematography is like a bad 80s made for TV picture and the quality of film changes from scene to scene. The sound is bad and in some scenes sounds like your in a room with a bad echo. The lighting is inconsistent and changes within a scene. I have no idea what the plot is. After an hour I had to turn it off, something I've rarely ever done. The acting done by the Cooper and the main actress was fine, they obviously know what they are doing, and it simply highlights when bad actors come in. Its just bad.
