Storyline
Man or woman, the sight of a dark-suited municipal employee dolling out parking violations stirs a primal hate in all but the most enlightened souls. And the heroine of EXPIRED, the parking officer Claire, knows it. The film revolves around Claire, a kind soul who resents having to enforce the law at all times, and Jay, an angry traffic officer who loves his job, being the perfect outlet for his anger and frustrations. Coming both from a place of despair and loneliness, Jay and Claire meet and engage in a tumultuous relationship which will eventually teach them that love can spread his magic seeds of redemption and hope, even in the darkest and most perverted of all affairs. And don't forget to put money in the meter. Written by Anonymous

Contrary to other opinions here, we did not find this movie at all funny, entertaining, or worth spending and hour and a half to watch. Instead, we found it boring and sad only.
The biggest flash of humor was when Claire reads her mother's letter.
We have seen many movies with dysfunctional characters, sad situations, and about people living pathetic lives that were actually worth watching. Contrary to what the trailer portrays, this is NOT a love story; it is a study in how we all approach life in vastly different ways.
The acting was fine; the script just wasn't that clever or interesting. Teri Garr's character was the "highlight"; the main characters were so pathetic we didn't care about them.
