X's & O's (2007)

I absolutely loved this movie. The characters are so real, I feel like I know someone just like the ones in this movie, every single one of them. I don't want to give way the ending but, I haven't seen a more realistic and matter of factish movie in this genre yet. It's hilarious, it has negative shades, twists and turns that you would not expect! I don't even know which "box" I should put this movie into. Is it comedy? romantic? drama? suspense? But isn't life just like that too? What box would you put your life into? Is your life a comedy? tragedy? suspense? drama?... Now you know what I am talking about. This movie is just as real as life can get! Very well made!

A waste of time. Watching ice melt is probably more interesting. 1 commentator said was not 'chick flick' but that is the only redemption I can see is that women may like this film.The notion that Lorenzo, who is getting lots of women, is tortured over his inability to find a lasting relationship is pure female fantasy. Lorenzo is in his late 20s. If Lorenzo was in his his late 30s or more it might be credible.Also the emasculation of Jimmy was not credible.The biggest problem with the movie besides nothing interesting happening is I just kept wondering why I am suppose to care about these characters.Very ordinary people who I might be friends with in real life but they are not my friends, and I wouldn't want to watch a movie about any of my friends since they are ordinary people. Watching I just keep thinking I don't care about these people and there is no compelling reason for me to care about them.

I saw X and O first UCSD at bear room. I was in to it. Rented it to see at home. Simon (Clayne Crawford) could rival Shia Labeouf. This actor has skills of skills. I don't vibe these type of movies in any fashion or form. This is different. A friend of a friend of friend got me to look at it at UCSD. It is a crazy world. Not to break a way from X and O as a movie. I LOVED THE POETRY. Trisa Edmonson and Shelly Royce had some thing to say worth damn saying. Good damn poetry grabs you on the shoulder. I was grabbed. Last but not least was how bleeping good it looked. It wasn't a cheeseball looking movie. Movie folks out there laying low keep your eye on Clayne Crawford.

I was one of the few people who had the opportunity to watch a screening of this magnificent Romantic comedy called X's and O's and I can attest that it kept me entertained from the beginning to the end. Unlike most Romantic Comedies, X's and O's surpasses the stereotypical romance comedies that are shoved in our faces on a daily basis. This isn't a chick flick and it isn't a macho flick. X's and O's delivers something that most romantic comedies don't. It targets both sexes! So instead of being dragged to a chick flick like Sex In The City or to a macho flick such as Rambo, both male and female can sit down and enjoy a movie together that will not only entertain you but leave you with some good conversation afterward. You want the perfect movie to pop in the DVD player (in some cases Blu-Ray) and watch on your first date? X's and O's should be your first choice. Yes, X's and O's is a independent film however it's been directed, written, produced and edited as if it were a high budget film. Check out X's and O's if your willing to watch a good indie flick worthy to be called "Good"
