Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Seth_Rogue_One It's over-dramatic and over-sentimental and has a TV-movie feel to it but... for some reason I like it a bunch still.I read a couple reviews on here by people saying they thought it was a sequel to 'Chasing Amy' by Kevin Smith with Ben Affleck, seriously?Why would you think that?Just for the record it's not, and neither are 'Chasing Liberty' or 'Chasing Papi' or any other movie with chasing in the title.Anyway back to the movie, it stars DJ Qualls and Rachel Blanchard who previously starred together in 'Road Trip (2000)' but this movie is as far from 'Road Trip' as you can get... (Even though technically there is a road trip in this movie as well, but that's beyond the point.)The feel of the movie is dark and gloomy and there is a true sense of loneliness and frustration throughout the movie, so yeah don't expect DJ Qualls to make you laugh in this one.'Chasing Holden' is a reference to the character Holden Caufield from JD Salinger's book 'Catcher In The Rye' which is one of the few books I've actually read (not much of a book-reader) and I think it helps if you have read that book because DJ Qualls character is absolutely obsessed with that book.It's not a movie that everyone will enjoy, a lot of people will find it too depressing but those that do like it I believe will like it a lot, no promises though, it helps if you like DJ Qualls.

dillyboy_4 I recently watched this movie at school, as we have finished reading the novel "The Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger.This is a horrible movie. The plot is in total shambles, the dialogue is incredibly cheesy, and the film has a horrible ending.First of all, the fact that the main character ventures off to New York with another person totally destroys the effect of the film. In the novel, Holden Caulfield was meant to venture alone in order to discover things on his own in a process of maturing, and to add to the theme of loneliness and isolation in the novel. In this film, the main character travels to New York with a woman.Second, there is no real feeling that the main character in the movie has the problems to the degree of Holden Caulfield. There is a scene in which he contemplates killing himself using a handgun, but this scene is too brief and does not add to the movie. This boy does not seem depressed at all; in fact, he is mostly cheery throughout the film. There is almost no indication of him being depressed or wanting to commit suicide.Third is the ending of the movie. The entire plot of the movie was for the main character to conduct an interview with J.D. Salinger. At the end of the film, however, the character wants to kill Salinger using this hand gun. This makes no sense whatsoever. The main character may want to take out his frustration on someone else, but why would he take it out on the author he idolizes? Another let down is that the main character doesn't even talk to Salinger. There isn't even an actor to play Salinger.Finally, the boy realises that the answer he wanted was in his relationship with the girl. He thinks of this while holding a gun at Mr. Salinger, and decides not to shoot him but to find the girl, whom he left stranded after a fight in which she called him crazy.This movie is an extreme let down and does not represent

DoyleMa And not nearly as funny....this movie has nothing to do with the comic genius of Kevin Smith, as the title may suggest. (Chasing Amy, Chasing Dogma, Chasing Kevin)This Holden guy has nothing to do with all that.Avoid this movie like the plague....

Scott Tenorman If you could put the word "cliche" into a bottle, shake it up real good, and then empty that bottle onto a reel of film, well then you'd get "Chasing Holden."It's about one "troubled young man"'s attempt to track down J.D. Salinger, thinking that he has some kind of cosmic connection with Holden Caulfield. You know that cringing feeling you get when you hear an Iggy Pop or Stones tune in a car commercial, knowing that it was bought and paid for 40 years after it was written and is completely out of context and an insult to everything you believe in? Well *BAM* there's 'Chasing Holden' for you.And Kevin Smith fans, don't be fooled! This movie has nothing to do with 'Chasing Amy.' Instead of seeing this movie, instead I suggest you watch Chasing Amy again, maybe this time focusing only on every fourth word that is said. You will have a lot more fun than watching this flaming piece of crap!
