AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

SnoopyStyle Writer Davy Mitchell takes his younger brother Sean on a road trip to promote his short stories collection. Davy gets a random phone call from a stranger named Nicole (voice Katie Aselton) in a motel. They get into a phone sex relationship. He meets Josie at a bar but he gets interrupted by Nicole and Sean brings Josie back to the motel room. Lonely introverted Davy begins a long distance relationship but Nicole refuses to give him her number. Sean teases him about it. Davy starts dating Sean and girlfriend Sarah's friend Samantha (Marguerite Moreau) after a party.This has an interesting idea and a few interesting scenes. However even the good stuff is problematic. The lead character is so pathetic that it's hard to watch. Brian Geraghty is a good TV actor but this problematic lead has to be played by somebody with a ton of natural charisma. I'm thinking Paul Dano. Talking on a phone is not visually cinematic. Talking to Samantha is twice as interesting visually. The two-truths-and-a-lie game has great potential. Kel O'Neill really puts a big fat fastball down the middle of the plate. The movie needs Davy to hit it hard. It's a letdown moment. That should have been the turning point leading a big climax. Instead, it goes into an extended downhill slide and a final unsatisfying twist. Also Katie Aselton should not be Nicole.

Tim Rogers You would have to lack common sense to call this a spoiler. How is something so preposterous (That a potential viewer who wants to be warned why it is such a waste of time) and is revealed on IMDb's cast list a "spoiler"? In fact anyone wanting to not waste their time should know this so called "Spoiler"; the movie is one of the rare ones whose entire rating hedges upon its end. If you did not read this "spoiler" then simply begin watching and then look at the credits. "Nicole" is voiced by a girl, as you would know watching the movie. And when it comes time to show you Nicole, you see one of the other cast members listed (Who everyone knows is not the other cast member). The script at this point gets this movie a 1/10 rating. HOW PREPOSTEROUS! The main character would not even have the common sense of any viewer? The main character would have known this is not the person on the phone just as the viewer does. This cannot be the person who was on the phone, any human aged 4 years old to senility would know it. But the main character doesn't? They could have improved the score of this movie to say 6/10 by simply using a transsexual or such with the same voice for the same character (Anyone see "Ticked Off Trannies With Knives"?) They should have cast one of them. They didn't. What a worthless movie, zero believability, zero probability, makes for zero anything.

glastris First of all, Brian Geraghty can really act. His portrayal of the lead character was both controlled and believable. What could have been a caricature of the loner/nerd/intellectual was in fact a sympathetic portrait of a lonely man who is socially awkward. If you watch this, look for his facial expressions, they were spot on, and I'd assume, the most difficult part of the body to act with.While the phone sex is part of the relationship between Danny and Nicole it takes a natural turn to friendship/relationship. Danny lets Nicole know that is what he wants, and she is trying to hold back, but obviously wants more as well.The fact that he's a writer shows that he lives in his own head, to an extent. When he's confronted by a real chance of love/relationship/sex he fails and/or bails (the bar scene and his encounters with Samantha). He even, probably unknowingly states that when he tells the girl in the bar that life on the road isn't what it's all he'd hoped for (and then she sleeps with his brother instead). Boy reality really does bite, doesn't it? Finally, and here is where the spoilers come in, the final scenes do not need to be looked in a gay/straight way. To me it was about possible/impossible, fantasy/reality. I don't think Danny is gay or closeted, I think he's just had to realize that he fell in love with a woman who isn't and doesn't know what to do about it.....who would?

dave-sturm Davey is a lonely, 28-year-old socially inept "writer" trying to peddle his self-published book of short stories by criss-crossing New Mexico in a beat-up old station wagon with a mattress in the back and doing readings at independent book stories to audiences of about five people. His loutish younger brother is along for the ride and the chance to snare drunk chicks who think the boys are the reincarnation of Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady.One night, when Davey is alone in their cheap motel room, the phone rings. One the other end is the sexy voice of Nicole, who says she is bored and wants to have phone sex with a dude. Any dude. Davey obliges. Thus is launched a relationship that has Davey totally spellbound. It's not all about sex. They share secrets, confide, console, etc. But only over the phone. He thinks they are soulmates. She insists on keeping her identify secret. Davey is desperate to meet her. His brother mocks him.This debut offering from writer-director Kyle Patrick Alvarez casts Brian Geraghty (The Hurt Locker) as Davey. He spends the whole movie in a state of confusion and yearning. He's a putz and knows it. But maybe there's hope. A lifeline has been tossed to him, but from whom? When the cat is deftly pulled out of the bag, you might fear Alvarez is going to go somewhere stupid with this. He doesn't. It plays out as it should. And, as with most good endings, a few additional possible scenes play out in your head.I look forward to seeing what young Alvarez does next.
