4.0 out of 5 stars Romantic Comedy - Up & Coming Stars - Indie Film, September 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Getting Personal (DVD)
Getting Personal features two up and coming stars - Michael Landes and Hedy Burress. The chemistry between the two is felt on-screen as you follow their struggle to ultimately connect.

The two are supported by their friends - played by Dina Spybey and Michael G. Lewis (also the screen writer)- who both deliver. Their characters provide the comedic flare that keeps you laughing throughout as you find yourself rooting for the leads.

The cast is supported by veteran actors Lane Smith, John Shea and Geoffrey Blake - - who all add to the story's flow and believability. Wait until the end to see the final twist!

This is a great movie to use, as an example of what an Indie Production is all about. Shot in and around Boston, you can see how Michael G. Lewis, Michael Landes and their director Ron Burrus pull it all together.

This movie is worth watching and a "must have" for your Indie collection!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad!, September 9, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Getting Personal (DVD)
Caught this on HBO recently (admittedly because nothing else was on...) Surprisingly good, little movie. Acting's good, lines are funny, and the Bob Ross piece is a scream. I'd recommend it. I've seen alleged bigname comedies that aren't funny at all and I laughed outloud a few times watching this.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Very Sweet Movie, December 26, 2000
By 
This review is from: Getting Personal (DVD)
I've had a crush on Michael Landes ever since he played the love of Dorthey Jane Torklesons heart on "The Torklesons" when I was still in high school. Then he went on to play Jimmy Olsen on Lois & Clark, but was replaced a year later...grr...anyway I digress.

I've been a fan of Lois & Clark forever, so when I see that there's a movie with THREE major cast members from the show, I just have to have it...there's also the Michael fatuation mentioned above.

I thought the movie was very cute, and yes like the other reviewers mentioned the Bob Ross scene is classic. I still remember how a friend of mine reacted when he passed away, "No more happy trees!"

I love how the movie showed how just ONE event in your life can affect your relationships for a very long time. Lane Smith as a psychiatrist was something I never pictured before, but he played the part very very well. I would have loved for there to have been more scenes with John Shea, but I understand why there weren't and the movie still worked for me.

I liked Hedy Burress in "Foxfire" and I loved her character in this. Very different from "Foxfire" which just shows what a dynamic actress she is.

Then there is Michael...words cannot describe how he moves me, but I can say that I think he's great in everything I've seen him in and this movie is no exception. :)
