Sadly Over-hyped

How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This is a stupid show. It is not good at all, it's not even funny at all and the actors are all terrible. The writing is some of the worst I've ever seen in a show like this.This is the kind of show you watch and then say "hey how did something that awful get made and put on TV and is still on TV?". Why didn't somebody in the process of making this show stop and say "hey wait a second this show is really bad and we shouldn't waste our time and money making it".Bad, avoid watching if you have good taste.1/10.

I was watching TBS a few weeks ago and saw them compare '10 Items or Less' to 'The Office' in one of their advertisements. So I checked the schedule, found out when it was going to be on, set my TV to remind me that it was going to come on and got my snack and my drink all ready to watch what I thought was going to be a great show......Unbelievable disappointment. I sat there thinking "I could have had more fun doing nothing at all....." So I thought maybe it was just one bad episode and gave it a second chance. Boy was I wrong.It's an outright tragedy that they can compare this trash to 'The Office' and get away with it. I was honestly appalled.The worst part of this show is that it really isn't funny. Not in the least bit. Some people might like this kind of humor, but I don't.So let me help you all out here. If you enjoy watching a bunch of people acting like idiots on camera, '10 Items or Less' is the show for you. But if you like something clever, a show that doesn't use the typical clichés of just about every other TV show known to man, don't even bother. You'll end up wasting your time, just as I did.

It's always sunny meets the office set in a grocery store.I can just imagine the pitch meeting for this. Ugh.Weak concept, weak dialog, weak acting.I don't know where to begin.I know where I can end-by not watching it ever again.Fortunately I just stumbled on to this.Moreso than not recommending it, this show reminded me that I should find more to do in the evenings.Ugh. Did I mention that already? I mean, I just don't know how to describe it. Also, I am flummoxed that it is the same name as a quality movie starring Morgan Freeman. The two titles are not related.Ugh. Sorry for repeating myself. The actor who plays Leslie Best acts a bit caveman-ish. Tongue firmly in cheek.

In viewing TBS's newest attempt at infusing their comedic stature into an original series, "10 Items or Less" shows that perhaps Mr. Turner should stick with acquiring sitcoms and cartoons as the foundation for the network's motto of being 'Very Funny'. That is if the sting of "Daisy Does America" hasn't worn off...."10 Items or Less" establishes all the same clichés of being a grocery clerk that any common customer could see while wrangling this menagerie of failed auditions for Mad TV under the frayed control of manager Leslie, who assumes ownership of the family store after his father dies in a supposedly comedic fashion (a heart attack that knocks over a display stand, with the nearby employee fixing the stand first before helping the fallen owner). While actually showing this act of apathetic drudgery might've seemed more funny, instead the story is relayed by Leslie himself with less than dramatic results.This is just one of the many examples of failed attempts at achieving a punchline, and instead resorting to a fast quip... just not fast enough. What remains is an almost painful experience for every actor present, shown in their faces in almost every scene yet simultaneously used as "the pain" of working in a grocery store to give them character. Irony.As with any new show, 5 episodes have already been printed. Hopefully "10 Items or Less" will remain 10 episodes or less....
