Review of Table 19 (2017) by Dawdlingpoet — 27 Nov 2021
This is a mildly amusing, entertaining rom com (more 'com' than 'rom' though - mild 'com') of a film. I liked that the titular table was full of somewhat socially awkward people, for one reason or another and I could relate to one or two of them. I liked Stephen Merchants character, Walter Thimble (and what a name that is, eh? I had to look it up on IMDB(!)), who seems to improvise his answers to personal questions when put on the spot. It was also nice to see Lisa Kudrow (aka Phoebe from Friends) in another film - I've seen her in one or two but not many over the years. Plus there's the bossy older person - yes its a bit cheesy and cliche perhaps but I didn't think it was too bad.
Overall, this is a pretty alright, inoffensive film - you could do better than this, you could do worse. Its likely to make you titter but I wouldn't say you'll get big belly laughs from it. I'm not sure its especially worth seeing but its not got nothing going for it either, so its up to yourself whether you see it or not. Its maybe one to see if it comes on TV, I suppose.
