Good movie but grossly overrated
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Textuality is a great romantic comedy that showcases a spiral of digital relationships that culminates in disaster. If you cannot relate to this movie, you've either neglected to embrace the future of communications or you've got zero sense of humor. The characters portrayed feel like characters from everyday life which bodes perfectly for the plot.Next up is the music which was perfectly synchronized. A couple low profile classics mixed in with some mood setting tunes made the movie flow together really well.I was surprised to find this movie had so much Canadian content, as that usually becomes evident very quickly based on simple things like the timing, continuity and color correction, all of which were flawless executed here.The women could have been cast to be a little more attractive but given the diverse range in tastes - to each their own.
Very well written movie with a great cast! Great break out group of young Canadian actors.. Carly Pope rocked it and Liam Card had me laughing out loud as Jasons quirky miss guided best friend! Eric McCormack was great in his role as Simone's older love interest and her "roster" had me laughing at their antics and individual quirks.. Unfortunately Jason Lewis was out of his league and was unable to do justice to the brilliant script he was given. I hope that his performance doesn't affect the audiences ability to see that this film has a lot of great qualities that far outweigh his lacklustre performance. Look forward to seeing more from this cast and production crew in the future!
Just saw this on TMN! Have to say this RomCom is finally different than all the other drivel coming out of Hollywood. Nice to see that in the end they don't get married automatically. Why does Hollywood assume all their audiences are stupid and will buy into two people automatically falling into a marriage? Really nice to see a change. Amazing how true to life this is!!! The three guys are HILARIOUS and Jason's best friend is really funny! I love how the dialogue isn't trying to be something it's not, feels like watching some friends. The lead girl is SO quirky and reminds me of Zooey Deschanel. Definitely see this if you want something different!!!
It was a pleasure to come upon a new movie which was not jam packed with predictable characters, and stars to sell seats. I thoroughly enjoyed the modern social media undertones throughout the movie, which made it a very hip and relevant romantic comedy for 2011. Kudos to the writer: Liam Card, the humor was edgy and satirical, and the acting was not so shabby. Jason Lewis did a fine job as distressed heart throb/gigolo- really hard to pity a guy who is sleeping with four beautiful women, yet he somehow pulled it off. More importantly, and surprisingly I really thought Carly Pope and Liam Card shined as undiscovered acting gems in the film. I hope to see more of them in the future! Marc Rigaux and the entire production ensemble did a great job, and I will be sure to spread the word (through social media of course). Great date movie!
