Before you can say "Judd Apatow" we're whisked away into a movie Never-Ever-land of yeah-right romance for going-nowhere guys. Go to Full Review Brent Simon Shared Darkness 03/16/2011

Spooner unfolds in an alternate, fantasy reality where girls swoon over de-masculinized awkwardness, and its makers additionally assume this is will automatically tickle an audience pink. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

03/22/2014 The two critics here are off the mark. Spooner is a delightful and sensitive film with some very funny moments thanks to the supporting cast. See more 02/02/2014 Very cliched but I found it had a few good moments. Christopher McDonald seems to play the same role in every movie I have seen him in. See more 08/19/2013 This quirky indie rom-com is poorly cast, poorly directed, and poorly executed all around. See more 04/27/2013 72% I liked seeing Lillard and McDonald play father and son again. See more 09/27/2012 did care 4 this which just loves 2 revel in it's own quirkiness See more 09/15/2012 Matthew Lillard performance as as a goofy nerd going nowhere is spot on.
