Miss Nobody

This film reminded me immediately of one of my favorite films - Amélie. It is delivered in the same quirky, cartoon-like style but without the mesmerizing charm and flowing story line. The acting by Leslie Bibb was fantastic and she did a wonderful job with what she was given. Everyone in the cast was outstanding and acted their hearts out. I can easily see why they all won awards for their performances in Boston. The main problem I found with this movie was that after the first half hour it was so repetitive and predictable, I found myself looking at my watch every 5 minutes. That being said, I appreciated the director's (Tim Cox) dedication to the style of Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie), as I imagine that these kind of films are much more difficult to direct and produce than a straight forward, dark comedy. I was relieved when it all came to an end.

This movie has everything you would want in a great movie: spot on actor selections, great plot, excellent locations, funny narration and dialog. But, it winds up being just a so-so movie. It is a movie that found me reaching for the remote to fast-forward more than once due to it's tendency to drag along in places, only to leap to another situation. It is a movie that you WANT to cheer for, but can't. You WANT it to succeed, but it doesn't. Excitement builds at the end, with fairly good pacing, but it is almost too little, too late. Given the abilities of actors involved and the really funny plot, I feel that a different director would be able to tie this up into a neat package that would be on my list of movies to wear-out watching.

frankly i am unfamiliar with the actors in this richly produced 'murder to laugh at' comedy. the laughs are deliciously off color and the (for me) unexpected twist in the plot had me wanting to watch the whole movie again right away!

a full cast of wacky and maybe a bit sick characters walk through this story and will keep you wondering 'who's next?' and what will our lead character do with them.

this movie is sweetly bitter and in that is the charm to a good one and one half hours of fun entertainment. this might not be the type of comedy some people find funny but then, they don't know what they are missing!

ps - the mother is my favorite character!

When I sat down to watch "Miss Nobody" it was without any prior knowledge about what the movie was about, who starred in it and without any expectations of what the movie would be like. All I knew was that it was a dark comedy.

It turned out that writer Doug Steinberg had come up with a rather funny script for this movie. And director Abram Cox brought the story to life on the screen in a very entertaining way.

The storyline in "Miss Nobody", shortly summarized, is about a secretary who scales the corporate ladder at record speed but leaves a trail of dead bodies in her wake.

"Miss Nobody" works out quite well because it is a wonderful combination of dark, twisted comedy and likable characters. And the fact that the cast ensemble were good and did great jobs with their roles and characters was just a plus, of course.

And while we are on the topic of the cast, then I will say that Leslie Bibb was doing a phenomenal job of carrying the movie with her performance. And there were some great supportive appearances from talents such as Adam Goldberg, Kathy Baker, Missi Pyle, Brandon Routh, Vivica A. Fox and Barry Bostwick whom all really added a lot to the movie, despite most of them having very small roles actually.

The situations portrayed in "Miss Nobody" definitely had a great part to say about the outcome of the movie. And here writer Doug Steinberg proved to be very talented, because he had come up with some very hilarious situations for the characters. There are some good laughs to be had throughout the course of this movie.

If you enjoy a dark comedy, then "Miss Nobody" is definitely a movie that you should take the time to sit down and watch. It turned out to be quite a surprise and a very entertaining movie in my opinion.

This was a dark comedy to say the least, not so hilarious, but some humble laughs it tickeled out of me.

its a film about a woman stiving to reach the top in her company, and her secret aim is to become rich and to find the love of her life. via various ways of coincidence she reaches her goal, if its deserved, well watch and see....

this is a film with extreme lots of locations and settings, and the editor and sound department has done a great job gluing together this piece of filmatic bravour. though its not perfect, it has a good float all the way through, and the main actress does a fine job. the narrative told by the main character can feel a bit cringy at times and there are some attempts to blow up some visual effects, but here the conclusion is a miss. the score though are of the vivid kind that makes you occupied and make you feel the mood f the motion through the sound of music.

the grumpy old man gives a 6 which for me means over average, and better than mediocre, and works like pelifix in the kindergarten, it keeps you glued to the screen all the way to the end. its just a recommend and so is it.
