Proud you say. We lost all of our money and I still don't have my K1 for 2008. The movie is not what it was cracked up to be. we were told they had entered the film in the Sundance film competition; only to discover they rented space in a bar and dragged a few people in off the streets just to say the were at Sundance during the competition. I feel it is important for me to let other potential investors know about my loss. I told the sales gal I could not afford to lose my investment. She said it was a sure thing, multiple streams of income. The world wide rights to the video alone would generate multiple times our investment. I think what bothers me most is the lack of sorrow, the lack of communication, it's almost as if they are trying to say What love is ? was a great investment. Please be careful I made the error of not renting Pool Hall Junkies. If only I had taken the time to do my research. Of course they never documented that Pool Hall Junkies returned 4 to 1. I would like to hear from a Pool Hall investor. Let my loss be your lesson. Maybe you need the tax write off I don't

After reading the reviews, I had to see this movie! I went with my husband and friends and we laughed endlessly! We all agreed that we want to see it again because we missed some of the humor because of the exciting fast pace!!! Cuba Gooding was excellent and Mathew Lillard gave a convincing performance!!! Mars Callahan is a great writer and director!! Keep it up!!! We also noticed that the camera angles and facial feature close ups were very unusual in that there was incredible definition and expression. Great camera work as far as we were all concerned! The women in the movie were very forthright and outspoken as well; not to be outdone by the men! A definite must see!!!

Like one of the other critics, I feel compelled to warn the public to not waste their money or time seeing this two hour gibberish of self-indulgent, trite diatribe that takes place in one room of a house for 99% of the film. While the trailers and great cast lead you to believe this movie is something worth seeing, it is so far from worth seeing. I am almost enraged that it is out there for the public to see, something that should rise to some standard of quality - yet, completely fails to do so. I was stunned at how bad it was. I guess it just takes rich friends to get something on the big screen. I was also stunned to see how the writer/director/actor is so self-aggrandizing as to exaggerate his bio on the www.bigskymotionpictures.com website, stating that he was "cast opposite Brad Pitt" in Kalifornia, and was "featured with William Hurt" in the Accidental Tourist. Then look up the films on IMDb and see if you can find him short of 50 credits down the pike.

Just how atrocious this film is. If I can prevent one person from seeing this movie, my life shall not have been lived in vain. Can you say shill? There can be no other explanation for some of the remarks here, promoting this film. The incessant barrage of graphic sexual descriptions instantly reaches the level of high school titillation and exploitation. The film will be popular with those physically old enough to get in, but with an intellectual age of 13-17. There are a few moments with some clever dialog; you'll notice them right away since they are so rare. Oh.. Hallelujah! its only about 90 minutes long. This film is so formulaic, it should be included as a classic example of "How Obvious Can a Film Be, To Be Created to Appeal To The Lowest Common Denomenator of Filmgoers?" Unfortunately that would send people to see it, which it simply doesn't deserve. *Watch the parade of guy actors rant about their character's pet peeve. *Prepare to suppress your gag reflex as every oral sex joke and gay stereotype is stuffed down your throat. *View with disbelief as the women are introduced and you question whether you walked into the wrong theater and somehow are watching the wrong film. *Suddenly realize that yes, they're going to subject you to the same behavior and style with all the women character's raving monologues. There are a couple of moments of actual acting when the actors realize that they might have some fun with the portrayal of their smaller than life character. Avoid this film at all costs.
