04/29/2010 Light movie to watch when bored. Almost like a Telivision show. See more 12/08/2009 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 12/05/2007 Whenever the picture tries to be about something bigger, it turns predictable or maudlin or, in a few sad instances, both simultaneously. See more 07/29/2007 Excellent independent effort. Wish it could get some attention, though . . . See more 04/13/2007 weird, boring and predictable are just three of the adjectives I would use for this film. See more Read all reviews
