Carrie Knight ***may have spoilers****I was previously in a writing group similar to this one for a couple years, took various creative writing classes, even studying with well known authors so I really got a kick out of it. Created as a fake docu-drama about motley group of budding writers, I felt for the various characters as they were desperately trying to find agents, get published or even self-publish, fall in love, or out of it, etc. Even though much was greatly exaggerated it was amusing, always something going on. Compared to many movies out there, I loved it. It was different and held my attention thruout.

taawx Against my previous experiences with direct-to-video movies I made the mistake of renting this one all because the cast and the plot seemed promising. This is really the first movie that I felt like making a comment about before I even finished watching it. Trust me and save yourselves. Although the plot somewhat seems original enough, the scripting is very poor, it is full of very predictable dialogs. I can even complete the sentences word by word as the actors speak them. I actually felt sorry for the cast, they must have needed the money bad which seems to be paid by Coca Cola, since their variety of products and their brand logo can be seen everywhere all the time. What a waste of my time.

paigenicole89 At first, I was excited to watch this movie. Many of the actors I have seen in previous movies, and have enjoyed! This however, was not one of those movies. I found this movie very hard to get into. It has a very slow start...middle...and...Well I did not even make it that far. I had to turn it off. I found the characters to be annoying and whinny the whole movies. I was also disappointed that this was filmed as a "reality show". I love B rated corny films, but this is unwatchable. There was nothing funny or comical about it as I was hoping for. If you are thinking about watching it, I would suggest finding another movie. If you do end up watching it, I hope you enjoy it more than I did :)

Steve Johnson Having been in several small writers groups in different Nevada and California locations I found it true to life in that a non-writer controls the group. The one problem I had with the film was the screenwriters identifying a Vanity Press indicating Roaring Lion as a Print-On=Demand. Nothing could be farther from the truth. I have found POD to be quite rewarding and not nearly as expensive as depicted in the film. I do believe that all three writers landed publishing contracts not because of what was written, but who they knew. I am sure that is the way it works in Hollywood and I understand it working in the print world as well.There were some chuckles, but as I found it too true to life in the writers group segments, I couldn't give it higher than 4 stars. For someone who has never experienced the writers groups BS they may find it extremely funny.Seal A retired porn star fights political corruption, intrigue and murder in...
