Trailer Synopsis Cast

Coming & Going is an irreverent romantic comedy that poses the question: How far would you go to capture the heart of the one you love? Lee (Rhys Darby) is a young, skilled OBGYN who lacks confidence when it comes to talking to women outside his successful medical practice. A minor injury temporarily lands him in a wheelchair and it is at that precise time that he meets his dream girl Alex (Sasha Alexander). Convinced she's only paid attention to him because he's in that chair, he stays in it to win her affections well after his injury has healed. Coming & Going is about love and the extreme things people do for it.

Dr. Lee (Rhys Darby) is a transplanted Brit and an OB-GYN working in the Los Angeles area. At work, he is very confident that he can provide excellent care to his patients and good bedside manner, too. But, away from the office or hospital, he is very shy around women. He makes blind dates and then becomes a no-show. His aunt, Irma, lives next door and worries very much about his future romantic happiness. One day, he has a fall and is confined to a wheelchair for a week. Wouldn't you know, a beautiful lady, Alex (Sasha Alexander) accidentally stumbles over him on a sidewalk, not watching where she is going, and a conversation ensues. For the first time in a great while, Lee can actually talk to a woman without hesitation, mostly because Alex takes an interest in him. Soon, they make arrangements to meet again but although Irma asks him to tell Alex the truth, Lee only feels confident that he has Alex's attention when he is seemingly disabled. This charade goes on quite awhile, with Alex admitting she wants to "date" Lee. Now what will he do? Meanwhile, Alex's sister and brother-in-law, a character on a children's show, are pregnant but is the baby the husband's or is the fetus' father the one "afternoon stand" wife had with a co-worker? Here are some problems two couples will have to work out indeed! This is a sweet and funny romcom that should please fans. Yes, it has a small bit of risqué material but, overall, is quite wonderful. (There is one scene involving a Chihuahua that will upset viewers, push the fast forward button). Darby is very funny, resembling Dudley Moore, and Alexander makes a beautiful love interest. All of the other cast members do fine work, too. This viewer also loved the nice costumes, sets, funny situations and well-paced direction. Having trouble finding any romantic comedies at the theater? Stroll over to the nearest DVD store and try to locate this one.

Lighthearted, funny and a wonderful watch, the casting is fabulous, Sasha Alexander is amazing, the highlight of the film for me (I am so learning those dance moves!) and Rhys Darby is so cute in a painful way. There isn't a weak link in this cast, the dull Sister, the nosey Aunt and the drunk whale all made me giggle. Great watch for a girls night, makes you believe in love and that there is someone for everyone out there, no matter what. Edoardo Ponti, writes, directs, produces and has a cameo which sometimes puts me off a film buthe does this so well seriously give this lovely film a go.It was made in less than a month and on a small budget but you honestly wouldn't think so, I had to buy a region 1 as it doesn't appear to be out on region 2 but watched it on my laptop several times and still laugh. Buy it you would be mad not to!

This is a small movie (read Independent) that delivers big time. This well written, well directed, well acted film shows that if you open your heart, love is there waiting to come in and fill it up.Rhys Darby successfully blends humor with just enough klutz to make everyone fall in love with him.Of course, the highlight of the film for me, is Sasha Alexander. This talented actress is as comfortable with humor as she is with Drama or action. Her portrayal of Alex is spot on. She is quirky, sexy and full of surprises.You may just find yourself adding a new word to your vocabulary, I know I did.

Very cute movie, lighthearted, somewhat adult in nature (mind the little ones - you might have to explain some things!). Funny and sweet in the right places. I was quite surprised to learn that this was a 100% indie project - it has the look and feel of a standard-budget cute summer romcom. The actors are not necessarily well known, though Sasha Alexander's name might be familiar to more people now she's got a hit show, but they're comedy genius. Fionnula Flanagan is terrific as the nosy aunt who lives next door, Rhys Darby is perfect in the role of the guy who just can't get it together enough to make it with a girl, and Alexander is perfect in her role as the girl who's given up on guys (but not completely). Definitely recommend this movie to anyone (though like I said, mind the little ones, as there are definitely a few, um, "adult" moments).
