Saw this neat little film over the weekend. It was good, and very funny...but then it sort of lost some momentum. Ending seemed abrupt...like ran out of time or something?

Overall, I'd say watch it if you can--it's different.

That's funny - I had that movie in hand whilst wandering the video store aisles. In the end it lost out to A Mighty Wind. Maybe I'll have to revisit...

Sick and ashamed and happy (and set in Newfoundland, right?),

The "Train Chasers" segment is 30 seconds of pure hilarity.

That part was hilarious Stu!

lol Gin...I think it's actually set in Joisey!

You'll love the Puerto Rican cantina truck dude. He's quite the awesome character!

Great movie, didn't really know what to expect, just rented it because I remembered it when going thru Netflix.

Great interaction of characters and some very funny moments. The Cuban guy was hillarious, as was the spastic artist. Some tear-jerker moments, GF was in tears at the end, good stuff.

Two thumbs, loved it.

I finally rented this last night. I thought it was great. I will agree that the ending was abrubt, but I think that was the right way to end. They could have dragged it out with Finn getting together with the librarian or Olvia's problems, but it was good to cut it off at that point. I was left hanging about Finn's background, there seemed to be alot that could have been done with that. Regardles, great movie.

I saw this one in the theater awhile back. Twas great. Just unusual enough. Amazingly it didn't seem contrived while watching it although the synopsis gives that impression. Loved the hyper hispanic dude who sets up shop next door. What a great character to oppose Finn. Hillarious.

Finally got around to watching this DVD. Two thumbs up at the AD house. I thought the ending was great. I knew the movie was only about 1:30 long, and I kept seeing the time on the DVD player ticking closer to that number. I found myself not wanting the movie to end.
