If it wasn't for the fact that it had some decent actors in this, I wouldn't have watched it to the end.
It just had no real story to it, other than than obvious...boy likes girl!
It's a pretty bland flick for what it is, there's not a hell of a lot that captures you, the chemistry between Camille and Skylar is pretty minimal, it's there...but I've seen stronger connections in other similar movies with better plot lines.
It's like hmm I like her, I do, but I can't really be bothered to do much about it kinda attitude from him and with her it's a pretty similar vibe.
I've seen both of them in other movies and they excelled, so I really don't get the lack of commitment in chemistry in this!
Other than that romantic side of it, there's nothing more to say, it's kinda just background noise the rest of it...which is just about watchable.
They really could've done better with this!

There's romance films like The Notebook, P.S. I Love You etc. but then you have films that don't try to be serious in that way, which are generally called romcoms.You see these romcoms have a set of typical conventions, and Cavemen being a romcom, ticks all of the boxes need to fulfill it's duty as a fully fledged romcom.We see four 'playboys' living in one open apartment. Skylar Astin, who portrays the main character of the four is a playwrite/screen writer. He is trying to write a script about love, but cannot, as he has not experienced it yet. He tries to break away from his other friends and find love in the City. His best friend (who is a, you guessed it, a woman) spends a lot of time with him, and they are great together *cough cough*, you can guess what happens here. The movie is chirpy, slightly suspenseful, feel-good and the acting is pretty solid. For anyone who is feeling lonely, watch this film, it'll make you feel better about yourself and feel motivated, a powerful technique which films posses, much like this one. Some of it is a bit too cliché, but if you're expecting that, then it's fine.Kudos.

Cavemen. A man sets his sights on just being in love. Tired of the one night stands so he wants to be someones forever. So I have been waiting a real long time to see this and there has only been one review until very recently. Now they are coming in more is broadening the rating. Now its pretty low. Which sucks.So I watched the movie last night and I have to say I was disappointed. There is no real need in this movie to be made really. It could of been done so much better which brings me down as I had hopes for this. The way it is shot is strange as the director for some reason over uses the focus on characters all the time and at very stupid bits.The soundtrack I thought was very good. Just these days Hollywood seem to think that the use of indie music will provide the audience with a more style to their music when in all fairness its just Hollywood trying to up their views.All of the scenes didn't really make sense and it only started making complete sense more than half way through. The actors where all very good there's no shame there. Camille Belle is such a weird casting for this movie as I had no real connections toward here. Even though I did want the obvious to happen. Her and Dean (Skylar Austin) to get together. He was the only one that had me wanting them together.When watching this movie and going here. This is not the review that I wanted to do. This movie could of easily been done better and its such a shame that this let me down.

Well written romantic comedy with a great cast and supporting roles. I enjoyed this comedy and its fast paced soundtrack. Cavemen won awards at the Austin Film Festival and Daytona Film Festivals so I am happy to see others enjoyed the film also.The movie had me cheering for main character Dean (Skylar Astin) searching for true love with the help of Tess (Camilla Belle), his friend and true love. With funny twists and turns, this movie kept me smiling.This film is based on 4 friends living in a warehouse converted to an apartment with no windows which they refer to as "The Cave"....hence "Cavemen"Dean' roommates, Jay (Chad Michael Murray), Pete (Kenny Wormald) and Andre (Dayo Okeniyi) each have their own hilarious romantic side plots while Dean searches for love.
