Feast of Love - short review

Although the cast (Morgan Freeman, Greg Kinnear, Rahma Mitchell, Jane Alexander, Alexa Davalos, Billy Burke, Selma Blair) for this film give good performances, the film struggles out of the gate with a fairly unengaging first 2/3 of a film, but it ends on a heartfelt note. The common thread for the group of characters is that a coffee shop where they come in and out of one another lives and pair off with various degrees of commitment, and/or sustain bonds of friendship when met with curveballs life throws at them.

I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+.

Mr. Skin will have a few more entries for most of the actresses in the film, though they could have shot a more modest version of the film without really impacting the story. But, I'm not ungrateful for the way some of the scenes were shot.

I just watched this last night. While it has the usual relationship cliches. I still thought it was a good movie. Besides I am always a sucker for a Morgan Freeman WISE performance.

I saw this theatrically and LOVED it. I think Greg Kinnear is terrific and believe he will win an Oscar one day.

Sorry. I loved the cast (and director), but I ***hated*** this movie.
