Review of For a Good Time, Call... (2012) by Kelsy M — 05 Jul 2013
Ari Graynor and Lauren Anne Miller's performances make this film worth checking out. They have a great on screen chemistry together. The film, I thought, could have been better.
The film feels more like a TV sitcom than a movie. I was surprised by the short running time of the film. It could have been 20 minutes longer. They had a good idea for a film, but didn't execute it correctly. It needed a rewrite. They should have opened the film up, when Katie first meets Lauren.
It was great seeing Ari Graynor in a leading role. I have seen her in a bunch of supporting roles in other movies. She reminds me of Kate Hudson or a younger Bette Midler. Justin Long is great in his supporting role. He almost steals the movie. I did like Kevin Smith's and Seth Rogen's appearances in the movie. Both of those scenes were hilarious.
Overall, I say, check the film out for Graynor and Miller. I would love to see them get leading roles in better films.
