Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Memorable, crazy movie

Absolutely Brilliant!

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

I was under the assumption that Yanks had cornered the market on celluloid fluff. Have I ever so rarely caught a flick that expressed any type of reality beyond it's typical title. Unfortunately for those of us whose curiosities are captured by that all inclusive punchline, I leased this DVD. The writer slams you in face with his pensive ideals, just as he invokes his bosom buddies to accept the pain he can't climb over. Quite a task for a two hour flick. I was amused by the trysts, clever, however, the Director slash writer clogged the palate with personal ops. Overall, the show was straight and narrow yet searching for a more threatening ending. Not that suicide isn't dangerous, I truly felt, that a gun...or a speeding car at a cliff might of been more intense. The lead actors were true, as were the lead actresses. All in all, the flick was pseudo good.

I just completed working on a project with Jimmy called Distortion, and he was the only actor that came to the set prepared. He didn't have a script in his hand, he didn't have to have the script supervisor feed him lines, and he actually helped the writer, director and lead actor of the film, with his dialogue. Then I went on this website and saw that he has costarred with academy award winning actors. He learned from the best, and that's why he's a consummate professional. I'm looking forward to watching this movie. I'm sure he did his homework. I've seen a couple other of his movies that he just acted in, like Seals and Delta Force, and he was very good. The scripts weren't all that fantastic but Fitzy was good. Good luck with your films Fitzy, it was a pleasure working with you.

I usually don't enjoy dramatic romance types of shows...but...this one was very special. The words, the relationships were absolutely on the money with me. It is sometimes hard to admit you have said and done the same thing, because we all want to be perfect. Jim Fitzpatrick is a very talented young man. And I say this with great conviction because I saw the Two Act Play, which he also wrote, produced and directed called 'Ten Year,' which this film is based on. And it is almost word for word, on the money with the play. By the end of the second act, people around me were sobbing. Talk about association of the heart. It doesn't get any better than this for a true story. Corby Timbrook, the drug addict was very compelling to watch. Almost sickening at a few points, because of my younger life when I dealt with my demons, the very same way. Thank God for friends. Bravo to you all.

I haven't seen any other projects that Jim Fitzpatrick has written, but this one is excellent. It has the honest feel for the lives of the middle-class people, and it tells an interesting story. Fitzpatrick plays a Soap Opera Star (which was true) who blows back into his old hometown looking for the girl he left behind 15 years earlier. Only he finds that she (Jodi Knotts) is now married to ex-best friend, played by John Bradley. You can feel how much these two loved each other. You can feel how much they want to be together. Jodi Knotts is such a joy to watch. She is one of the most interesting actresses I've ever seen. All of her inner emotions and the turmoil she feels is there in her eyes for everyone to see each time the camera looks her way. Fitzpatrick is also great as Jamie, the ex-love of her life. The rest of the main supporting cast do fine jobs as well. If you like real-life Romantic dramas, look no further. 'An American Reunion,' will envelope your heart and touch your soul...great love story at it's finest.
