Apr 29, 2010 Light movie to watch when bored. Almost like a Telivision show. See more Dec 8, 2009 Bobby G. Can't Swim was made in 1999 for $20k. Just remember that when you watch it. Why do you want to remember that? Because for $20k, shot on film (the Blowup entry in the credits leads me to believe 16mm or Super16), it's a pretty decent flick. The story and creative characters in Bobby G.'s life are what make this budget indie film work. Acting as well as directing, John-Luke Montias does a great job of building tension and showing us character development through the course of the sub-90 minute feature. The acting is decent, and the sets, while sparse, get the job done. Most of the movie actually takes place outside, and to this end, a good job was done separating the actors from the hustle and bustle of New York City. To close, it ain't El Mariachi, but it ain't too bad. See more Dec 5, 2007 Whenever the picture tries to be about something bigger, it turns predictable or maudlin or, in a few sad instances, both simultaneously. See more Jul 29, 2007 Excellent independent effort. Wish it could get some attention, though . . . See more Apr 13, 2007 weird, boring and predictable are just three of the adjectives I would use for this film. See more Read all reviews
