5.0 out of 5 stars An unexpected treat, May 13, 2001

This review is from: The Waiting Game (DVD)

This is a terrific movie to rent and watch and spend a fun evenig with a friend. The story keeps moving and has plenty of hilarity to keep you interested throughout. The advertising accurately describes it as a cross between Friends and Sex in the City. Neither to serious or to light its the perfect entertainment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ken Liotti: The Next Woody Allen, October 24, 2000

This review is from: The Waiting Game [VHS] (VHS Tape)

One viewing of this hilarious movie will convince you the name Ken Liotti is one to watch. His insightful vignettes of contemporary artists-in-waiting splays across the screen the bold colors of desperation, decadence, and the undaunted pursuit of a dream. Ken's mastery of colloquial New York-ese draws laughter and - at times - disturbing introspection from the audience. His hard-line realism in depicting the grunge and garishness of these aspiring artists' world transports the viewer directly into their midst. This man's days among independent filmmakers are numbered...watch for this boy in Hollywood!

This review is from: The Waiting Game (DVD)

I usually hate movies about actors and how interesting they are. They aren't at all. However, this little indie film is well written, and the subject just happens to be journeymen actors and their quest for success as they toil away as waiters and bartenders. The characters are all stereotypes, but the one who does the pretentious one man show is pretty funny, especially when he tells off two casting people, one of whom is Chris Lawford, the Kennedy cousin. Very watchable.
