I just saw this movie on WE Network and felt compelled to comment. I mean it was just, like, totally delightful! Hal Salwen has the world we live in pegged perfectly! Schreiber is spot on as the repressed shut-in, and Ubach is a standout as the quirky Denise who's struggling to reach out from her own little enclosed space. Hooray for everyone, cast and Salwen, for just a wonderfully sly, bittersweet, but ultimately satisfying experience!

The only interest in this movie is Liev Schreiber. If it weren't for him.... I would never have watched the whole show. All it is about is talking on the phone... and about absolutely nothing. There is no great story line, no thrills, No real big surprises... not anything. Just a waste of time. There are much better things to do with your time.

Unfortunately, I did not see this as "being right up there with 2001". Idid, however, find it not unlike looking in a mirror. For two hours.With nothing else going on. And so it goes. The plot. Moved forward. Atabout. This pace. And the camera. Never moved. It was like. Beingtrapped. In a room. With Ben Stein. For two hours. There are some gameperformances amidst all this nonsense though, but mostly you feel sorryfor the actors- clearly they thought the director had a 'concept' thatwas worth humiliating themselves for. The director didn't, soconsequently you have a bunch of pretty talented people talking intophones for two hours. And the camera, I'm not kidding, DOES NOT MOVE.Perhaps this was shot for computer screens, I don't know, but it suredoesn't work as a film.

Life, love, sex, birth, death...and all on the phone. This very hip comedy is all about a handful of New York guys and gals who tend to their relationships via telephone while busily hammering at computers or are otherwise indisposed with the necessities of living. Fresh, creative, and fun, "DCU" moves along quickly and runs a short 80 minutes all the while keeping the audience wondering if these people are ever going to get together. Only for those into droll, spoofy, fast talking, relationship-based, off-the-wall comtempo comedy.
