At a café in London, manager Rachel fires her cheating boyfriend, Charlie, the cook, just before the lunchtime rush. His job falls to a waiter, Tom, with zero grill skills. Meanwhile, the customers deal with broken hearts, bad dates and jealousy -- not to mention the crazed mother of one of the waitresses.

Lael Loewenstein Los Angeles Times About as appetizing as a pot of dishwater coffee. Rated: 1.5/5 Mar 16, 2007 Full Review Kirk Honeycutt The Hollywood Reporter The claustrophobic and poorly executed Caffeine is either a play in search of a movie or a movie in search of a play but, either way, it's searching for the wrong thing. Mar 16, 2007 Full Review Emanuel Levy Variety A witless examination of relationships and day jobs, Cosgrove's would-be comedy finds little humor in issues of infidelity, heartbreak (and bodily functions), resulting in a film that's hopelessly amateurish and creatively destitute. Rated: D Mar 6, 2007 Full Review Heather Huntington ReelzChannel.com Overall, those are 88 minutes I desperately wish I could get back. Rated: 3/10 Aug 23, 2008 Full Review David Cornelius DVDTalk.com It's the movie equivalent of lukewarm coffee and day-old cake. Rated: 2/5 Apr 18, 2007 Full Review David Levine Filmcritic.com all talk and no action. Rated: 1/5 Mar 16, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member One critics is correct, a sitcom. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Largely unfunny and catastrophically amateurish but still slightly interesting, holding my attention to the end! 7/05/2013 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Soft core porn gone wrong. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member delightful bubbly comedy with lots of NRG Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Don't waste your time. Saw this for Katherine Heigl but she's not a major player. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It's like a british version of Waiting. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
