On the Line (2001)

On the Line is a romantic comedy film that stars Lance Bass and Emmanuelle Chriqui together with Joey Fatone and Jerry Stiller. The film was directed by Eric Bross and was written by Eric Aronson and Paul Stanton, based upon their short film of the same title.On the Line tells a story of a shy Kevin Gibbons, an advertising executive in Chicago who's notoriously maladroit at dealing with the opposite sex. After a chance encounter with his dream girl aboard the El train, Kevin forgets to ask for her name and phone number and plasters the Windy City with posters seeking his lost love connection. Kevin's quest to find the mystery girl soon attracts the attention of a newspaper reporter and he becomes a media darling, while his roommates Rod,Randy, and Eric take full advantage of the amorous response by Chicago's female population to their friend's heartbroken search.On the Line has some clumsy dialogue and awkward turns.Also,it has a lot of thing unpleasant such as non-actors involved in the movie with clichéd,formulaic,implausible and predictable story.Overall,On The Line provides nothing but entertainment for 'Nsync fans.

After seeing this movie for the first time, I was left completely speechless. If it weren't for the fact that I had laryngitis, I probably would have still been speechless.The twists and turns that this movie takes just left me on the edge of the aisle. (I sat on the aisle because the movie was packed with little girls who wanted to see Bill Cosby, but found out that this wasn't his movie...wow, they must have been disappointed due to the fact that Bill Cosby is in the Cosby family, and Lance Bass is in the Bass family...and last I checked, those are two different families, though I could, and probably am not, not incorrect.) But this movie was very gripping from the beginning, all the way to the end of the opening credits. I then had to go to the bathroom for the duration of the movie, but I could imagine it being the greatest movie in the history of the era of journalism meeting cavemen in a sea of rabid tigers.In terms of the acting, Lance Bass was very antidisestablishmentarianism, if that is a word. If it isn't, I would say that he was good. However, even though I am a huge fan of his, I would say that the good was not the good that you would say to a kid who cleaned up his room. But rather a good that you would say to a kid after he threw away your Mickey Mantle rookie card, in which case your good really meant bad. Thus, Lance Bass was basically a bass player for a bass farming fishery.In conclusion, this movie ranks up there with the all-time great movies, such as Fried Green Tomatoes, I Married an Axe Murderer, School Daze, and of course Lorenzo's Oil.If I had to watch this movie again, I would...and I did. I have seen it at least 2 times now.

Giving a chance to the pop movies, I rented it!!! I have seen love stories, I have seen teenage movies that actually are pretty good!!! But Oh my God this movie sucks!!!!!!!!! This N'Sync boys can't find a way to make money... that's way I think they did this awful movie... the story is pretty bad and give an incomplete plot because you never understand what is really happened in the feelings of the girl and the boy... the moment in the train is the most corny that I ever seen, this movie is so plastic!!!!!! Guys if you want to see a love movie watch THE NOTEBOOK!!! Movies that out of a good story even if it is corny, it leave a message in your heart!

I am not an NSync (spelling?) fan, but this is one of my favorite movies for multiple reasons:1. It is surprisingly clean. No foul language whatsoever and it is soooo rare to find a PG movie that isn't targeting young kids/families (for those sensitive to this or can appreciate this element).2. There is a very significant secondary plot about music. In fact, I have this movie to thank for introducing me to the music of Al Green (I also own the soundtrack). The end's a little cheesy, but for someone who also played open mic's at one point, it's nice to indulge a fantasy now and then.3. Dave Foley's character has some truly funny moments. His stand up roots really shine through.4. It's not a teeny bopper. Lance Bass and his friends are past their college years, and Lance's love interest just finished grad school.So with that, it is difficult to predict who the movie was targeting, but it certainly got my attention.
