nitropowrd Here is a classified 'Indie' movie, that nearly stars Jason Alexander amidst a dozen other acting classified ads that have the cohesion of dogs meeting at a park. However, some manage to sustain interest in their performance for a certain melodramatic harpsichord and despite being leashed around through piles of right doo. Too clustered to be considered a B-movie (or realistic D-movie if you will), there is an eccentric, inebriated sway to the nature of seriousness to the plot, which consists of horribly stereotyped themes from 80's cop-movie paced action, single-lady romance novels, and a stab at the 90's harmony of Friends. Also Jason Alexander's acting is in it, and his performance, and occasionally those of others are only the efforts of the man trying to push the boulder up the hill. It is such that will stimulate you to punch through the tacky icons, and the instability that wavers throughout every act of this brooding play. Ultimately, it becomes its own self-fulfilling storyline, leaving you wishing that the phony Russian mobster just whacked Jason at the beginning, putting him out of the miserable mistake he made with this movie in good valor. Cinematically distressing enough to make me register to write this review, as it is just not fair that movies like this have to be made. The only consideration it deserves as "Indie" is by means of fiscally-latrined pictures that are the conglomerate. Not worth it, unless you are in the producer's classroom vying for a gold star by your comments.

persephoneroman What a delightful movie. I laughed, I cried, and I recommended it to all of my friends. It reminded me of MOONSTRUCK. The directing was spot on, and Michelle Danner did an excellent job weaving an emotionally enticing story that really focused on the relationships between the characters. I was equally impressed with the acting and thought that this was a great role for Jason Alexander. Rob Estes and Brian Drillinger were also great additions to the cast and I found them both really entertaining. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone out there looking for a great film to discover.

becka-worthington What a fun movie! I was having a rough day at work and literally the whole debacle of the dinner date made my evening. I loved how the director was able to weave such intense emotional responses amongst a lot of good humor. And I'm huge Jason Alexander fan anyways so getting to see him in that light was so much fun. Also Rob Estes was super sad the whole time- I just wanted to squeeze him! Also I have some relatives in Queens and the stereotypes they were poking fun at were actually quite life like. Its dangerous territory that's for sure. Seriously though I'd certainly recommend it for a date night- the chemistry between the characters was great.

aepex **SPOILERS** (not that it really matters) The film starts off with hints that it could be an original, interesting piece with less-than-great acting (except for Mr. Alexander, who made the film, if the film was made at all) alongside a well-thought out plot line. But, after a mere five minutes into this monstrosity, the main character sees a dove, a move the writer/director seems to have thought was inconspicuous yet clever, but is literally the most cliché set-up in film, and maybe even storytelling history. Midway through, the main character literally has a nervous breakdown masked as passion and torment in the middle of the date, the focal point of the film (one date in Queens, New York), and comes off as a whiny, weak, insecure, confused and depressed sociopath. Of course, none of this prevents the same character from falling in love with the waitress of the restaurant where the date occurred, followed by both of their sightings of doves at the end of the movie. Jesus.The character's shadow, a greasy little weasel who is supposed to be some sort of dating expert, comes off as nothing more than a greasy little weasel. Perhaps this was the intention of the writer, since such an obvious move hopes to teach viewers how great the main character is supposed to be (an innocent and simple blue collar worker who yearns for love) by comparison. Unfortunately he is nothing more than a confused moron who can't get over his wife for the life of him (his words, not mine) but somehow manages to fall in love with a random waitress who overhears his whiny rant about loss.I give this movie a 2 point because both Jason Alexander and Ron Perlman were in it (probably as a favor to one of the producers) and raised the bar as far as character development and acting go (even through Ron Perlman did not have a large role). I give it another 1 for effort. See this film for any of the following reasons: boredom, you were paid to, to learn how to make a bad film, or because you think something of what I described truly appeals to you. Cheers!
