Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

SnoopyStyle Johnny Rizzo (Matt Bush) has an overnight radio talk show in Oakland but he had promised his fiancée Claire (Anna Wood) to get a proper job if he can't make $50k by age 25. Claire's father gets him a cardboard warehouse supervisor job interview back on Long Island. His free-wheeling uncle Terry (Edward Burns) argues against this move and tries to set him up with tennis instructor Brooke (Kerry Bishé).This is a rather lackluster story. Matt Bush is not a terribly charismatic lead. He's acting more like a clueless teenager. Edward Burns delivers a limited indie with his writing, directing and acting. The only truly greatness comes from the enchanting Kerry Bishé. She floats in like a seaside breeze and lifts up the movie whenever she's on the screen. The rest without her is a passable bore.

meliaday I'll preface this by saying I have never seen an Edward Burns film, not for any particular reason, I've just never seen one.After this movie, I doubt I'll bother seeing another.It wasn't a BAD movie, just poorly cast and rather pointless.If this was written by the main actor in order to show that he can act and that he's a viable choice for films, then I could see the point of this movie. Otherwise it's a story that's been told a million times before, completely predictable and cliché.The main actor isn't bad, just poorly cast. He's completely unbelievable as a radio personality or as a romantic lead, he looks and sounds 14.My other minor gripe is that I don't know who this movie is really for. If it's a romance designed to appeal to women, then the main female lead is either poorly written or poorly directed. She's completely uninterested in the guy until he says he has a fiancée, then she's in full on flirt mode, very unappealing.So overall, don't waste your time, unless your a huge Ed Burns fan apparently.

TxMike This story is about Johnny. Matt Bush is Johnny Rizzo, a 24-yr-old New Yorker living and working in radio in the San Francisco Bay area. He has a 2AM to 6AM sports talk show, which he loves and is good at, but he also has a 24-yr-old fiancée who wants him to get a job earning more money so they can get married, live comfortably, have kids, the whole package.Her dad back in New York is paying the rent on their apartment. He sets up a job interview for Johnny, it would be working as a supervisor in a company that makes boxes and other containers, something very boring compared to what he loves about his radio talk show. But it also pays very well. So Johnny flies to NYC for the weekend and the Monday interview.Edward Burns, who wrote and directed, is Johnny's Uncle Terry, a relatively dirty middle-aged man who doesn't believe in marriage, and also has no problem romancing a variety of married ladies. He tries to set Johnny up for the weekend, for a "last fling", but really to get him out of his marriage plans.In comes Kerry Bishé as Brooke, former star tennis player in college. She seems interested in Johnny, but he is a "nice guy" and is faithful to his fiancée. However something happens, an intercepted phone call, that gets her to worry. So, what does Johnny do? That is what the movie is about, and other than Uncle Terry being very annoying most of the time, it is a very enjoyable movie.SPOILERS: In the end Johnny does not have the interview, goes back to California determined to keep his low-paying job as a radio talk show host. He and his fiancée have a final discussion, they agree to go their separate ways, which in the end is a good decision for Johnny who would not have been happy giving up what he liked most just to make more money. The movie ends with Brooke as a call-in to his show, she is taking a road trip back to California, in fact she is calling from Napa, and will be a guest on his show to talk college tennis. But they may be more, down the road.

ravenprods I found this movie refreshing and hilarious. At first, I was put off by the amount of profanity and sexual innuendo, but all the characters grew on me. I thought it was an excellent script, filled with unexpected moments and unique characters. What's most refreshing is knowing that most of these actors were fairly new to the acting industry. I loved the English care taker. He was funny-looking and a great character to throw into the mix and to reveal a lot of secrets. Matt Bush is charming and Kerry Bishe brings a whole new meaning to natural beauty. Anna Wood is reminiscent of Juliette Lewis in one her less crazy moments, although she has her own outburst.
