Jelly-4

Booth troy made note of all the shows starring Jewish guys and Gentile chicks. I thought I was the only one who noticed this. He forgot "Ed." I'm guessing the reason is because this the fantasy for many Jewish director/producers in Hollywood.

There is some funny dialogue in this movie. But I can't overlook its flaws:

*Suzanne Pleshette as Fuerstein's GRANDMOTHER?

*The caricature of a Hispanic woman. I hear they are firing her, but it would be ridiculous to have a show based in Miami with only WASPs and one Jewish guy. I hope they at least replace her with a less stereotypical character.

*The male lead is not someone you WANT Dylan to fall in love with. He's pretty boring and not as good looking as her.

*There isn't a lot of chemistry between Dylan and the male lead.

If they're not canceling this show I hope they at least improve or revamp these aspects. Of course, these complaints go to the heart of what the show is all about.

This movie was so slow and repetitive. How many times do we see the swimming pool, the red pen, and the typos.

I don't understand how people find this movie original just because it features S&M. If this were a big budget Hollywood film depicting a woman falling in love with a man who gives her a black eye, people would call it sexist trash. But since it's an indie flick and the bruises are on her bum and not her face, it's oh-so-hip and trendy and kinky and wow, so r-o-m-a-n-t-i-c.

What a refreshing change to see such a witty comedy. The cast was excellent, especially Helena Bonham Carter who was outrageously wicked. But my only complaint is that it was too short. I wanted to see Helena's character work out the rest of her revenge plot.
