As Real as You Make It

I came across this film on Freevee, which I didn't even know was a service, until I saw it listed on my new TV. I've always like romance and silly comedies. This, being both, seemed like my kind of thing. The low-budget quality mostly comes through via the sound quality. The picture quality can be hit and miss, but for the most part looks outstanding for the 35k they had to make this thing. The cast, for the most part, commit fully to the screwball nature of their roles and are very entertaining, and occasionally moving, to watch. I recognized Botello from The Art of Self-defense (2019) and found him charming as the play-it-straight character. Given the limitations of the production, I think the results were impressive. It's a fun watch, with some solid laughs throughout.

Bloody low quality of writing and of acting! It's nice that they use a typewriter. They might think they're original or wish to create something original. One feels bored from the beginning. It's difficult to believe most actors. Was the director rushing? It's challenging to feel that one is told a story. I don't feel like following the storyline because I expect nothing from this writer; at least not from this script. Why is this film tagged as a comedy? I don't feel the atmosphere of a comedy. I'm not even asking to laugh or to see jokes, as there's none in sight. The number of stars is less important. Our time is more important. We can spend it on other films.
