IN A NUTSHELL:
When a female computer nerd is rejected by an online dating service as "unmatchable", she declares war on the dating service, becoming a reluctant spokeswoman for all the frustrated singles out there. The problem is that the dating service swears they didn't reject her.
The romantic comedy was directed by Marian Yeager. Writing credits go to Betsy Morris. Already, the film has been nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the Dallas International Film Festival.
THINGS I LIKED: Georgina Reilly plays the leading lady and does a great job. I had never seen her in anything before, although she has been in other films. I believed her character's quirkiness and thought she had good chemistry with the leading man, played by Wilson Bethel.
Speaking of Wilson Bethel, he is best known for his roles in "Hart of Dixie" and "The Young and the Restless." When I read his bio, everything was written in past-tense verbs, suggesting that he had died. He's one of the celebrities who has been a victim of the recent death hoaxes on social media. He is very much alive and still acting!
All of the characters are well defined, creating an effective, amusing ensemble. Others in the cast include Brian George, Billy Armstrong, Veronica Wylie, Charlie Clark, Kanwar Singh, Bradley Ofoegbu, Ava Torres, Jennifer Griffin,and Sahara Ale.
There's a lot of quirky, nerd humor that will either make you laugh or roll your eyes with a smile on your face.
I had a little pet crab like the protagonist has in the movie.
Cute shout-out to Chewbacca.
I thought it was funny that several of the characters regularly participated in Zombie LARPING. It actually looked really fun. If there were a group like that in your city, would you want to be on Team Zombie or Team Human?
Dog lovers will appreciate the dog adoption element of the story.
I love the t-shirt that said, "Running code is my cardio." Ha ha Cute, quirky music, just like the romantic leads and other cast members. The original music was by Brian Satterwhite.
The story incorporates today's dating-app world, as well as technology and culture norms.
Bloggers will be encouraged to continue writing. It's therapeutic for the blogger and often very helpful to the readers.
The side story with the Theo Gutierrez as the Lawn Chair Man was sweet.
Keep watching during rolling credits at the end of the movie for some cute animations.
THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: It's ridiculous that a computer programmer couldn't retrieve a deleted email. Seriously?
It starts slowly and takes its time.
There are definitely some overacting moments; however, that's part of the charm of this goofy comedy.
It's definitely formulaic and predictable.
TIPS FOR PARENTS: Young kids will be bored because it's a movie about dating.
We see several gay couples together and one kissing.
We see women in jail.
Some "light" profanity.
