Am I Missing Something?

Last night I had a flashback -- to a scene in a film in which a woman was hypnotised into liking "the Beach Boys" -- only it went horribly wrong and she ended up loving "the Bitch Boys". For some reason, I couldn't remember the name of this film, or anything else about it. In the end, I had to call up a friend, and he couldn't remember either. After half an hour of searching IMDB, we found this.The reason, my friends, why neither of us could remember what this film was called was because it was so dire that we had erased it from our collective minds: utterly trite, poorly directed low-budget chick flick rubbish, this film set an all time low in the 'romantic comedy' genre -- and I've seen "You've got Mail" AND "She's all that".In fact, if memory serves me correctly, it was the same girl who dragged myself and my friends along to see these aforementioned films as well, and my only advice to you as a reader of this review is to stay away from this utter stinker of a romantic comedy, unless you're a teenage girl with completely stereotypical delusions about 'ideal' relationships. Having an IQ of below 50 would probably also help, after all, it's the only way you're not going to see this ending coming.On a brighter note, I also remembered how I got that scar on my left arm -- I remember now that this film was so dire the only way I avoided an excruciating death by boredom was chewing into my own arm for something interesting to do. Avoid this one: it's that bad, folks.

1st watched 9/19/2001 - 5 out of 10(Dir-Willi Patterson): Despite Anthony Edwards very likeable persona, this film as a whole tries to do too much and ends up being about too many things. The movie could have been a very sweet romantic comedy, but there are so many side stories(Aka. The Dentist, the son and his sports aptitude) that Edwards becomes an everybody's man rather than just a nice guy who falls in love with a nice woman. This is one of those movie's where I wish I could recommend it because I was routing for it till the end(mainly because of Edward's) but the supporting characters are not nearly as believable as the main couple and they take up too much screen time. I believe Edwards could play many different parts and do them well but he hasn't been getting the opportunity to stretch his acting talents. This is one of those examples.

There is nothing here which challenged the brain, and it is not an earthshattering 'must-see' flick, but it was very enjoyable, with a very watchable story with actors who are well chosen for their roles (it was great to see Suggs). I must add that the story is also very predictable - but it is the type of film where that doesn't matter.I just enjoyed it - it was as simple as that.

This film is a really nice small film with the great non-American humour. Tom Conti's cameo is excellent and the bonus is that at last there is a good film filmed in London - I know most of the places they visit. Beautifully shot and well put together. You would be stupid to miss it.
