Pleasant Surprise

Rating: 10/10 (30 November 2013)

I was truly surprised by this film. I almost took it out of the player in the first 15 minutes, but I decided to stick with it. Boy, was I rewarded or what! It's not everyday you get to see a film with all characters going by their real names and having the plot to showcase a glimpse as to how actors interact off screen. I haven't laughed this hard all year watching an adult comedy. Definitely a pleaser if you aren't a prude and can overlook societal issues like religious convictions. The main characters kept the film flowing and you have to hand it to the writers who did an exceptional job (unless of course ad lib was highly encouraged). This film is mostly dialogue driven with a fair amount of action. If you get it, don't get discouraged early, stick with it and you'll be handsomely rewarded! 5 stars all around!
