Another day and another Reel One Entertainment TV movie with ridiculous and atrocious writing, and that's pity because movie is technically competent. There are no bad cuts, bad lightning, bad makeup, poor audio recording, loud background music so you can't hear cast dialogue, and stock NYC footage is barely used.
The movie actually starts interesting but quickly spiral out into ridiculousness. This is a story about two college friends who are for over 10 years also work partners (theatrical agents), but in reality they have mostly unfriendly weird love/hate relations. One one side, their relations are portrayed relatively realistic - yes, women can be so mean to each other no matter what popular opinion is. Around 60 min in, I decided that I watched enough, and need a break to check writer. Oh look, it's Grace Knight, the writer of "The Honeymoon Pact", another ridiculously written movie, so everything makes sense.
Movie is somewhat salvaged in the Act III. Whole thing can summed as "if you just told me that..." then movie wouldn't happen which is the classical example of lazy writing. My point is if you expect romance which I did as this is ROE TV movie after all, there is barely any. It's mostly ridiculous comedy supplemented with some bad drama.
As this is ROE and for some reason(s) their every trailer shows compressed whole movie, you can save your valuable free time for something better.
