Storyline

Johnny Ryan is a facile writer of best sellers, and he's a womanizer. At a party in L.A. to celebrate the publication of his third book, he's arranged an assignation with one of the catering crew when he meets Mercy, a writer in town from New York. She turns out to be a critic whose review savages his book. He calls on her at her hotel, invites her out, and they find they enjoy each other. When her brief stay in L.A. is to end, he asks her to stay. Jump ahead: he's bearded, alone, and emotionally shut down. He visits his father, a university professor from whom he's estranged. What's going on? Where's Mercy? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>

Horrible piece of movie.
21 September 2011 | by (India) – See all my reviews

You guys know what i would have written if i was allowed.

Anyways the movie deserves nothing more than that.

Funny thing,according to movie love was supposed to be deep but the movie was more hollower than anything, they should have named it hollow man. Damn, that's a good movie, why drag it here.

Off it goes, save your time. That's why this review. *crap. *boring. *repetitive. *clueless.

Wondering why i saw the movie whole?, Well i do respect movies in general so if i started it, i finish it. Forces me to tolerate such movies.

Quack movie makers only.
