Details

Coming & Going is an irreverent romantic comedy that poses the question: How far would you go to capture the heart of the one you love? Lee (Rhys Darby) is a young, skilled OBGYN who lacks confidence when it comes to talking to women outside his successful medical practice. A minor injury temporarily lands him in a wheelchair and it is at that precise time that he meets his dream girl Alex (Sasha Alexander). Convinced she's only paid attention to him because he's in that chair, he stays in it to win her affections well after his injury has healed. Coming & Going is about love and the extreme things people do for it.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
jellicle-4 Sasha Alexander is my favorite actress, so naturally the prospect of watching her in a starring role was more than intriguing. I loved the entire movie and by the end of the film I was amazed by the entire thing! The writing and directing were superb and the plot kept me engaged. I was laughing the entire time and loved the ending. I am giving copies of the DVD to everyone I know so they can experience Coming And Going. Everyone has loved it just as I expected they would! Sasha Alexander was brilliant as Alex and I also must applaud both Rhys Darby and Finnoula Flanagan for their hilarity as well because they add so much to the complex humor that I loved upon first viewing. This is a film I have seen many a time and will enjoy it forever. It's that genius and I love it.
PThreeLinz I simply adore this!!!I read somewhere that this film was completed in less than a month? This is unbelievable when you take into account the high quality of the finished product! Coming & Going is such a well written movie, with an amazing & hilarious cast to compliment it further! I laughed pretty much from beginning to end, & I love it when something happens in a movie that you just don't see coming!!!Rhys & Sasha were both outstanding in their roles, & I loved seeing the short cameo appearance from Edoardo!!Thumbs up to all involved!!*HIGHLY RECOMMEND*
chanceofrainne Very cute movie, lighthearted, somewhat adult in nature (mind the little ones - you might have to explain some things!). Funny and sweet in the right places. I was quite surprised to learn that this was a 100% indie project - it has the look and feel of a standard-budget cute summer romcom. The actors are not necessarily well known, though Sasha Alexander's name might be familiar to more people now she's got a hit show, but they're comedy genius. Fionnula Flanagan is terrific as the nosy aunt who lives next door, Rhys Darby is perfect in the role of the guy who just can't get it together enough to make it with a girl, and Alexander is perfect in her role as the girl who's given up on guys (but not completely). Definitely recommend this movie to anyone (though like I said, mind the little ones, as there are definitely a few, um, "adult" moments).
Carolyn4901 Rhys Darby's performance as Lee is very good in its believability of character and comic quirkiness. He convincingly plays a doctor who cannot seem to attract women and his shyness in putting himself out there to meet women seems genuine.He meets Alex (Sasha Alexander) almost by accident: she nearly runs him over in a parking garage. He's been attracted to her for quite some time but never had the courage to even speak to her. The lovely Sasha Alexander subtly shows her acting chops here. Even the movie goer is convinced she finds him interesting because he's in a wheelchair and he cannot convince himself she's attracted to the person inside of him.This is the perfect rainy day movie, or a lighthearted romantic comedy perfect for those Friday evenings at home. Don't miss it.
