3.0 out of 5 stars A Gilmore Fan, December 4, 2004

This review is from: Chasing Destiny (DVD)

This was a very cute movie. I have become a big fan of Gilmore Girls and I was looking for more of Lauren Grahams work. While she has been in some major motion pictures her roles often seemed small. In this movie she has a starring role and you can really see a great performance. Don't expect to see the same Loreli Gilmore. Her character in this is very different!

The story line is a cute little romantic comedy. While it's not some great 5 star movie it is very watchable and something I would share with family and friends.

The story is about Jessy (Lauren Graham) who comes home to see her father Jet James (Christopher Lloyd) who is in the hospital dying. His best friend and fellow musician Nehemiah Peoples (Roger Daltrey) is staying at his home (somewhat of an uncle for Jessy.) Jet a stereotypical rock star who has spent all his money. While trying to hide her fathers car from the repo man Jessy ends up meeting Bobby Moritz (Casper VanDien). They begin a relationship and Jessy believes that Bobby is a strugling poet. She becomes upset when she learns that Bobby is really the nasty collection agent that has been hounding her father.

I could not find this movie at my local video stores. For this price it was a bargain.

3.0 out of 5 stars Chasing Destiny, March 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Chasing Destiny (DVD)

Moderately charming. Chasing Destiny is BY NO MEANS (maybe the worst movie ever made). With all of the bad movies that are allowed to be made, Chasing Destiny is a delightful excape from the norm. The cast alone is worth the purchase. Music icon THE WHO'S ROGER DALTRY-Nehemiah Peoples, DRAKE BELL-Walter (Nickelodeon's-The Amanda Show, Jerry Maguire, HBO's The Jack Bull), CASPER VAN DIEN-Bobby Moritz (Storm Troopers, Sleepy Hollow, Tarzan). CHRISTOPHER LLOYD-Jet James (Taxi, Back To The Future, My Favorite Martion), LAUREN GRAHAM-Jessee James (Gilmore Girls) and Music greats, Denny Lane, Spencer Davis and Carmine Appice. If you like music from the late 60's early 70's, this movie is a must.

4.0 out of 5 stars I love this movie!, March 23, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Chasing Destiny (DVD)

I love this movie! I've watched it a couple of times now, and who'd have thought Roger Daltrey would turn out more sexy than Casper Van Dien! I just wish there had been more of the music. I played the ending over and over, listening to the songs. The love story was sweet, too.
