The opening scene of this film is surprising: it was thought to be a film of ultra violence... Screen goes dark... Next scene: a very interesting dialogue between the two main characters, and soon after, a third one enters the scene character, in quick appearance... Then you can see that it's a comedy between pseudo thieves, beyond clumsy... This opening scene is in a restaurant called Ol'South Pancake House, similar to so many other Cafeterias in the States. .. Several surprises are in the course of the film, for example: another pseudo thief (Darcy played by Eleanore Pienta - masterful interpretation) found in the mansion of the current fiancé of one of the pseudo thieves (Leo played magnificently by Will Rogers). Cinematography (Nathan Smith) great and excellent editing by Tim Fender. Excellent movie - and here's one more note: exact time for the writers, producers and especially the director (Jason Headley) to deliver the "message"... My vote is 9 on a scale of 1 to 10.

The first time I read the synopsis, I got interested right away. And boy, it's not a bad rom-com. Not bad at all! It's cute, sweet, and at certain part kinda heartbreaking. This movie is the proof that low budget can make a good movie too.

I really liked this movie. My only criticism is that the dialogue fits women as well. Many of the conversations I have had with my best (female) friend. Especially the ones surrounding the differences of perspective centering on single and married life. This was an intelligent movie presented in every day language with surges of emotion that felt authentic and realistic. Bravo!

When I decided to watch this movie, I knew it wasn't gonna be great. All I was hoping for, was that it wasn't a plotless comedy with listless acting and lame jokes. Thankfully it wasn't. While there isn't much in the movie, as it is shot pretty much within a house, it still kept me engaged. It was well paced, though could have a bit shorter. Yeah, there are a few scenes showing the lameness of Marlon and the uncalled for relationship between Leo and Darcy, but that is just to pull the plot past an hour. But overall the comedy is subtle and entertaining, hinting at the quirkiness of each character. Its not like a dumb and dumber type of comedy. While nothing great, certainly doesn't leave me with a sense of regret, like some other films in this genre.

Starts off a little slow, nearly gave up on it. Unable to sleep I persevered and I'm glad a did. Not overlong, and, if it's predictable that's ok. There's a lot worse out there.

When I pick a film off of Amazon Prime having never heard of it before, I always go in with lowered expectations. From time to time I'm pleasantly surprised and this was one of those cases. The film follows two men, Marlon and Leo, who break into a home in a gated community, only to find themselves trapped inside with a woman, Darcy, who has her own reasons for being in the house. On the positive side of things, all of the actors did really well with their line delivery, which elevates the writing. Matt Jones has a voice that reminds me of Jake Johnson, with that very dry humor, and the actress playing Darcy also had a very good deadpan delivery. There were also a few well done scenes of physical comedy. Given that the film basically only has the three characters, it does enough dynamic things with them (and the runtime is short enough!) that you don't really get tired of them. On the downside, the film lacks any actual compelling emotional center. The heart of the film really has to do with Leo getting over his ex-fiance, and I cannot emphasize enough how totally boring this element was for me. The ex-fiance is basically absent from the film, so we depend entirely on Leo telling us how much he loved her. It just isn't interesting, and the conflict it generates between the characters is underwhelming. I wish the writers had found a different way to create tension between the three main characters. I also didn't particularly care for the way that the film developed the relationship between Darcy and Leo--the writers go with the trope of the "nice guy" who deserves to have a woman be in love with him and I just find it to be an annoying cliche. Darcy's character is very quirky and I didn't find her attraction to Leo to be very believable. This movie moves along at a good pace, it has several well-delivered, funny lines, and the actors generally have good rapport. It is certainly stronger in the first half and loses its way a bit in the second half. The actors do a good job of delivering their lines and keeping the energy of the film up. This isn't a movie I ever see myself rewatching, but I think it's worthy of a viewing.

This film tells the story of two men who decides to break into a house and steal things while the occupants were out of town. However, unexpected things occur within minutes of their break in, and their seemingly ingenious plan is completely derailed. Most of the film occurs in a single house, but it does not feel boring or monotonous because the house is absolutely beautiful. The three characters are really funny. The story keeps on giving surprises, and it is really fun to watch. The subplot about a waterfall is engaging, because it adds an emotional layer to the story, and prevents it from being just a silly comedy. I enjoyed it.

To be honest, the first few minutes felt kind of lame, but this soon turned out to be a very entertaining 80 minutes, filled with a zany situation competently enacted by what turned out to be a good trio of performers. The story and script are for the most part unbelievable, but since I was offered a book titled "What's the number for 911?" I believe that anything is possible in the USA, and so it didn't felt that outlandish of a plot. The dialog, direction, editing, and pacing are just right, and all contribute to a nicely wrapped up package in the end. Matt Jones turns out to be the weakest link in the trio, although he does a competent job of it, while Will Rogers delivers a near-perfect performance for the role. As for Eleanore Pienta, her performance is natural and utterly believable, showing she is a very promising actress. I wish we could see her perform in other movies. Overall, I would say this is a very entertaining situational comedy with no great aspirations but that overdelivers in almost every aspect (a thin budget always shows). I wish the director gets a chance to do more.

I was at work yesterday and, as usual, i got bored out of my mind (don't tell anyone), so i decided to watch this movie. i set my expectations pretty low because it was just to pass the time but, lo and behold, i was pleasantly surprised by how great the movie was. this is an independent film through and through, as there's basically just three people interacting with each other the whole time, but what it lacked in budget it more than made up for with an excellent little comedy that trumps most of what's out there today in the same genre. the cast turned in great performances, especially Matt Jones,Will Rogers' character was totally identifiable (at least he was to me) and Eleanore Pienta was perfect for her role. i don't do movie reviews as a norm, as there are enough people out there doing it, but i just had to try and give this little gem a boost in order to get more people to watch it and have a wonderful surprise like i had watching it.
