An Intelligent Nice Guy Chump Who Gets Dumped on Continuously

Rating: 4/10 (13 January 2007)

If you want to see a movie about a nice intelligent guy who continually gets dumped on by a long list of characters and circumstances, ranging from his wife, customers, bosses, taxi drivers, and just life in general, don't miss this movie.
Nobody in the world has luck as bad as this guy. Despite all the energy and optimism he kept displaying throughout the one hour and 11 minutes I could stand watching this movie, everything he does turns out wrong and costs him money, time, and more. I was really starting to get upset with him because he was such a chump who consistently exercises bad judgment.
I stayed with the movie as long as I did because I never dreamed that anyone would write a script that shows someone so down and out for so long. I mean, two or three setbacks I could handle but multiple setbacks on top of other setbacks (with little setbacks contained within each) - that was just too much to handle. If I had the unfortunate luck to meet someone with an affinity for attracting this much chaos into his life, I'd wish him well and be on my way.
I gave it a four because the acting was good and it was nice to see San Francisco so realistically portrayed (for the most part) as it was back then.
