Movie #38 "Caffeine" --- well, I guess after 38 movies there is bound to be one I don't finish, and here's the first one. I lasted through one hour of it, but it then passed the stupid line. Yep, it had a whole bunch of quirky people in a restaurant, and the staff was in turmoil with the chef getting the heave hoe and the supervisor having a restaurant critic show up so she can get a better job, and another waitress bringing in her "crazy" grandmother ------but all in one day? and the grandmother beats up one of the customers and no one offers him a free meal or anything? In this day and age? stupid line. Evidently, the film thinks it can get its own customers by serving up Katherine Heigl in a small role. No sell here. I'm eating somewhere else!
Average rating: 2.691, I give it 1 star.
Caffeine
(2007) NR
The staff and clientele of a hip London coffeehouse find their lives, jobs and relationships blending together in this quirky ensemble comedy. Trouble starts brewing after manager Rachel (Marsha Thomason) fires and dumps her chef boyfriend, forcing the waitstaff (played in part by Breckin Meyer and Mena Suvari) to fill in. What ensues is a hectic and hilarious day in the life of the Black Cat Café in this debut feature by director John Cosgrove.
