The Worst Film Ever

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Excellent adaptation.

A Brilliant Conflict

I first saw the last part of this movie by accident on TV. I then watched it from the beginning on Netflix. Then another time with my husband, who actually stayed awake and liked it as well! I thought the acting was perfect by both Jason and Jess. I would love to read the play from which this was taken. My only question and confusion came in the wedding scene. Whose wedding was it, because both his friends and her family were there. Also, it seemed that she came across as more of a jerk in this scene than in any other part of the movie. Not sure why? It was after the big breakup and I guess she harbored more anger than before towards him?

Some viewers are comparing this to '500 Days of Summer' and liking it better. I was disappointed in it, BUT compared to this bore. '500 Days of Summer' was great,it at least was interesting. 'Peter & Vandy' has a total running time of 79 minutes (including 10 minutes of credits (opening & closing.I feel sorry for those who spent money to view this. even renting the DVD is not worth it, (there are no extras)/Jay DiPietro is the writer & director. His idea of having a time shift for some scenes is not bad BUT, the time period & settings are about the same. Confusing top say the least.Jason Ritter is Peter and Jess Weixler is Vandy, Jason tries hard, but Miss Weixler does not come across.No one in cast comes over as even likable, they are not persons I would care to see again.As per IMDb it had a very short run in only one theatre,it was a Sundance Festival selection.. IMHO Sundance is not as good as it was when they started out. What s big let downRatings: * (out of 4): 33 points (out of 100) IMDb 3 (out of 10)

I had a chance to see "Peter and Vandy" at the Gen Art Film Festival a few months back and heard it's coming out in theaters in a few weeks. I'm happy it found distribution cause I really enjoyed this film. It's a quirky love story told out of sequence. If you think this sounds a bit like "500 Days of Summer," you're kind of right. The thing is, I actually liked "Peter and Vandy" better. At times I found "500 Days of Summer" a bit too clever for its own good, although I dug the film. "Peter and Vandy" doesn't resort to the type of sight gags that bogged down "Summer." This is a simpler and more heartfelt story, and I appreciated that. It's an enjoyable film that's worth seeing.

Just saw Peter and Vandy at Sundance, and I'm hoping it gets picked up for distribution. This was one of the most realistic movie relationships I've ever seen, and the actors are spot on. As the director said in Q&A this morning, the stars could convey so much with a single look that he was able to cut various small chunks of dialog from the original script. I won't ruin this film by telling you whether the ending is a happy or sad one, but it's definitely a real one.Don't be put off by the knowledge that the film bounces back and forth in time. At first you think that this is just a cute stylistic choice, but before long you come to believe that the story requires it. Just when you think you know what's going on and what's going to happen, there's another time shift and you discover that all your assumptions were wrong. It adds a number of very welcome surprises, the kind that you don't expect in a romantic comedy.Highly recommended.
