NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Booker G.R. This movie is actually pretty good if you've worked in a relevant industry. The movie is from a server's perspective, and involves what they endure. Sure the customer's are over the top, and it can be a little offensive at times (Germans and gays won't like the stereotypes portrayed), but as a whole, it works. Aaron Ashmore in particular was awesome playing his cocky a-hole of a character. John Bregar is like the spitting image of Chris Evans, circa early 2000's.
thepotatoHasEyes i don't know why but i went into this movie wanting to dislike it , i caught the first couple of min's as a kind of trailer..... that made me not like it , but once i sat down and gave it my att'n, it took off immediately , ....one of my movie guages ...it should make me laugh within the first 5 mins , at least once , RIgHT?....if its a comedy , ....servitude passed the test , it is at least as good as "waiting". if that means much , .here's a glimpse....manager of restaurant says .."(if we are not a team)then i will take one of those rifles down off the wall right here and just "kurt Cobain" it right here in the middle of the dining room...just end it , right here, boom , blam, (hand gesturing an exit wound out the back of his head)...and i will get your att'n first so you are looking , and you will live with that image for the rest of your lives ...and do you know how much i am joking ? this much..."ya, so , i hate long reviews and this one is stretching ... it's pretty good- servitude. now just start the movie .
Aaron Anderson I watched this film at one of the festivals. I didn't have any expectations for this film before watching and I am glad I didn't have any. Comedy is not about one liners. While wit lightens the telling, it doesn't alone make it a true comedy. The film didn't get any better till the end. Actors did what they could do to this script, otherwise the film would have been much worse. Writer and director has to first understand that even comedy has some structure to follow (like drama) and that is completely missing. This is another perfect example that shows comedy cannot be forced.Writing: 3/10, Acting: 7/10
H_Spengler My sister and I recently attended a preview screening of this in Toronto, I watched the trailer and knew this was going to be a simple, fun movie. It's not that I had low expectations, but I didn't set any either.I have to say I was pretty impressed with what I saw. There's no new formula here, it's revenge in the workplace, the difference is unlike the insipid "Waiting" it's fun, and tactful, not gross and unnecessary, and while it was somewhat predictable, I still enjoyed the ride and enjoyed the characters. If you've ever served time in the wait/customer service industry, than you too can relate (as I certainly did) to the tiring everyday, irritating situations and customers and strange/rude situations encountered in the industry of "dealing" with people.Kudos are also in hand for Margot Kidder (who I didn't even recognize until I saw her name in the credits) she looks great (even if she couldn't move her mouth), and as a rabid 20+ year fan of Kids In The Hall, it was a guilty pleasure, and awesome to see Dave Foley, (he still looks great, and hasn't lost a beat of the dark sarcasm that endears us to him so much). Also, loved the German corporate buyout guy (Franz), perhaps my favorite character next to Foley.A simple, thoroughly enjoyable little film. And a great Canadian export.
