Mario Tarradell Dallas Morning News The film's attempts at humor fall flat.

Audience Member another teeny-bopper pic Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member I really enjoyed this movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Not sure what that was supposed to be...not sure I'd want to see it again or have anyone else. Nick Stahl has no presence whatsoever. Tom Wilkinson appears to be having fun, but that's it. Oh, and jokes about deaf wheelchair bound people aren't funny. MISS. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member "TNotWP" is a quite interesting and funny film which starts as what seems a usual comedy film, but soon has an unexpected plot twist and from there it gets both: crazy and serious at the same time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member O.k. This was not a most fantastic movie,or one that will stay in your mind your whole life. However, it will stay in there for meybe quite some years. I just got through watching it, May 12th. 2010 . I have heard about it, very little though, and seen commercials about it. Yet, still had no idea, what it was about. From the name, you figure it has something to do with a pair of pants. Thus, you assume, who ever is,or was wearing those pants, is who the movie is all about. Well, I won't say. You'll have to go see it for yourself. Anyways, a good cast of charecters, all comeing from totally different views, which always helps, plus a little bit of a tie in , with eachother, yet, perhaps unknown to some, while surely known by others. It's not exactly a love story, or a drug film, or a thief type of film,or a story about a rock and roll band, or a guy/girl lost in thier idea of life. Nor, is it a cop movie. Yet, you might see a few of those in there. haha. It's quite a unique story still the same. Told pretty well, not that your wondering what ? , untill the twenty minuttes later part, that you'll almost miss , unless someone tells you, :See !!!.....haha. You'll like this film, because you'll also notice meybe pieces of yourself within some of the peaple in this movie, or meybe you'll just be a friend of a person in the movie, viewing a lot of your friends, past and present. As I said, I wouldn't call this a fantasic movie, yet I wouldn't pass it up either. You'll have your own opinion, of course, yet, you'll never have it, till you see it. Perhaps Jim ,Mario, and Cherryl couldn't quite understand where exactly the charecters were comeing from, or where they had been, and where they wish to go ? They say it was all too boreing, not worth seeing. Well, if you like some t.v. drama's, with just a tiny spark of comedy, then this is for you. Obviously, they didn't see the comical twists in the various scenes, because a few were well hidden, but you had to just catch them. Mark Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This was pertty quirky and somehow managed not to fall apart. Funny, unique, weird and just plain likeable. I really enjoyed this, its not the best nor the funniest but it all comes together nicely. Really loved the character Lolly and it was nice to see someone with a disability protrayed like a normal person, completely ignoring her disability. Surprised to see buttoned up Tom Wilkinson doing comedy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
