Review of Loosies (2012) by Julia L — 18 Jan 2014

Didn't expect much from this (as.

I'd never heard of it before) but.

Ended up being pleasantly surprised. This was just different enough from the mainstream rom-coms to intrigue me and had a slowly revealing plot line that kept me guessing. The romance angle was just so-so although I liked what Bobby did with the phone #'s (fate) and Lucy's picture. I also found the actual pick-pocketing scenes pretty cool and the relationship he had with his mother. Peter Facinelli did a great job as Bobby (also writing and producing) and the acting in general is decent. I'm not sure I would go along with this being labelled a romantic comedy however (it's more on the drama side) and the title is pretty terrible - I can't figure out what it means? 12.13.
