I expected much much more from this film. Normally I enjoy any project associated with Seth Green but even his involvement in this project couldn't give me enough to keep me going. File it under seen it all before, and done much better. The screen play is tired, the direction was miserable, and the editing was stale.
Simple plot. 2 childhood friends, who have gone their own way in life, come back together when one is getting married. (can you guess where this is going already). The one not getting married was supposed to be a writer but after submitting the best first 2 chapters of any novel and getting a 50000 advance to finish his book, he gets terminal writers block.
The expected wacky, nonsensical scene after scene follows with a climatic ending that is best suited for the season finale of Days of Our Lives. The pacing made me want to gnaw off my arm, but it was already gone from the previous screening of Death at a Funeral.
You know you're in trouble, when I spent the entire film wanting to see the movie based on the first two chapters of the unwritten Novel.
However, I saw this at a film festival. I was with a 21 year old guy and a couple of girls around the same age. The boy hated it, the girls loved it, and they all hated Becoming Jane earlier in the day.
Thats probably more helpful if you're wondering whether to shell out the bucks for this cold turkey.
