Editorial Reviews

When an old high school crush returns to his small hometown, Reed Fish's once simple, calculated life begins to unravel. A drunken incident prompts Reed's fianc‚e (Alexis Bledel) and the entire town to turn against him. This one-of-a-kind hilariously clever comedy features an up and coming ensemble cast and an unforgettably captivating original soundtrack.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great film! September 24, 2007
Format:DVD
I stumbled on to this on my Netflix "instant play" feature as something to watch. The Netflix rating system told me I'd like it, and they were right! So much so that I'll probably buy it soon.

The coming of age love story watches the goings-on of Reed Fish, a "literal" big fish in a small town who has a daily radio show he inherited from his dad. The slam dunk in this movie is Schuyler Fisk's performance and music. She's incredibly engaging. Her music is wonderful. Jay Baruchel, as the title character Reed, and Alexis Bledel, as his fiancée, do an excellent job.

Some reviewers trash this film for various perceived ills, but they are completely missing the humour and the point. Reed Fish is a big fish, pun intended, in this little town, and spends his days solving problems for his listeners and otherwise operating as a pillar of his community despite his youth - it's meant to be a little weird, I think. There are many moments where the movie laughs at itself for all these "flaws", which I'm sure were engineered in in part to mimic reality. Do yourself a favor - suspend your reality for a moment and enjoy it for what it is - a delightfully engaging, charming romantic comedy.

4.0 out of 5 stars You're on the FISH! January 17, 2008
Format:DVD
Welcome to Mud Meadows. And Reed Fish (Jay Baruchel) is the Voice of Mud Meadows. He inherited the job from his Dad. Mud Meadows is one of those tiny towns where the biggest controversy is grooming the town hedges and the big story is the return of the zorse (zebra+horse).

Since taking over the Voice job from his Dad, Reed's become the town's Mr. Fixit. He knows who to call and what to say to get the small-town government working for its citizenry.

He's marrying Kate (Alexis Bledel), the darling of Mud Flats, a girl who's 'almost like family' already. Her Dad's big excitement is smoking an illegal cigar. And she expects Reed to get excited about wedding color schemes, food, etc.

It's just too perfect--something or someone--has to upset the apple cart. That would be Jill (Schuyler Fisk), his ex-girlfriend from HS, who went away to college. She's a pragmatic girl who believes happy endings only happen in movies.

What ensues is chaotic and funny. Reed has to learn how he defines his life--rather than the town, etc.

Of particular note is the soundtrack. Fisk sings a couple of songs and has a very nice voice.

My only serious gripe with this funny indie film is the DVD is dark enough that I had to fiddle with the contrast fairly radically to get it to look right. It was worth the trouble.

Format:DVD
I only bought this movie because Alexis Bledel was in it and overall, I have to say, I'm very disappointed. Aside from the two women (Alexis Bledel and Schuyler Fisk), the acting was awful/bland, and the plot was just really weird/lame. Throughout the story, you get to know the characters and see their relationships develop and then all of a sudden, you realize they were all just acting. At the end, two completely random people end up being the real Jill and Kate and I couldn't have cared less who he ended up with because they were both complete strangers with whom there had been no chemistry developed.

It's really ridiculous to waste so much time building up everyone's relationships and chemistry like that only to extinguish it all in the end. I can tell the director was going for something unique and different here rather than just the predictable love story but honestly, a predictable love story would have been much better. IMO, this just didn't work out at all.

Aside from the ridiculous plot twist, the main character was just not all that likeable. Jay's Reed was less the likeable guy and more the mumbling, moronic loser who I just couldn't like no matter how hard I tried. I wish neither woman had ended up with him in the end because he really wasn't worthy of any of them in any respect.

The only decent part of the movie was when Schuyler Fisk sang at the bar. That was truly the only thing worth watching so please, don't waste your money on this one unless you really want to see her sing (Even then you might just want to fast forward to that part).
