Nonureva Really Surprised!
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
hokeybutt Okay, so I was a big fan of Sook-Yin Lee when she was a veejay on Canada's MuchMusic station (our nation's equivalent of MTV)... so I had to check out this movie... a romance between her and hot young Aboriginal/Canadian actor Adam Beach... it HAD to have SOME good qualities, right??? Well, sorry to say it but... the movie blows. I really *want* to support Canadian movies, ya know... but why do 99% of them have to suck so baaaaaaaaaaad? They don't even feel like real movies... they feel like some kind of fake simulation of what a movie really is. They try to copy the stale "formula" of popular genres but they are totally bled dry of any kind of atmosphere, originality or any sort of qualities that make movies WATCHABLE. Sook-Yin is a struggling art gallery dealer who wants to be successful... Adam is a struggling artist who wants to be successful... they begin a romance (though they have absolutely nothing in common and no chemistry between them whatsoever)... they encounter obstacles... they clash... gad, this movie is awful. Even the usually brilliant Don McKellar has an awful bit part (he probably owed the producer a favor) as a Sook-Yin suitor who won't take no for an answer. One more nail in the coffin of Canadian Cinema.
jackfoley Some random comments about a film that doesn't deserve much thought: *Adam Beach is an awful actor; If Graham Greene is the native Canadian Tommy Lee Jones, Beach is the native Canadian Paul Walker.*Sook-Yin Lee was an annoying VJ on an annoying channel and now she's an annoying actress playing an annoying character.*"Woo" typifies in a number of ways the stereotypically bad Canadian movie; flat cinematography, stock, naive characters, inane dialogue.I'd rather insert a toolbox into my rectum than endure sitting through this again.
marie-claire This review is a tad of a spoiler, but very little.I had never heard of this movie before I stumbled upon the (two) copies of it at my video store... probably because it's Canadian(!)Anyway, I enjoyed it, sweet and funny... It's only two days later that I understood it's most important characteristic, when I finally saw "Breakfast at Tiffany's" for the first time (it was on CBC). This movie is a pastiche of the Audrey Hepburn classic! It's very obvious, especially at the beginning, practically each scene mirrors the original film. Let's revisit our oldies shall we!
David de la Fuente Absolutely tedious and unmoving in every respect. Acting is bad and unbelievable. Dialogue is bad and unbelievable. Plot is bad and unbelievable. For God's sake, even the sex scene is boring. The people are certainly pretty enough to look at, but if that's all I want, I can find that anywhere.
