'Free Samples' DVD review

"Free Samples" is an existential comedy about the search for meaning when you step away from a future that looked very bright in search of who knows what. The problem with a film like this is that it is not believable enough to score under its dramatic credentials, and the comedy does not hit the target often enough to get word of mouth going on something this offbeat.

One of things I like to do is link to a link to link; getting lost on Amazon.

A few weeks back my trip to the rabbit hole lead me to "Free Sample". Was curious and bought the DVD; which I am bummed has zero special features. A commentary with the cast and director would've been cool and the film's trailer. Oh well.

It started slow, but picks up steam. Didn't quite laugh, but it made me smile several times. I liked that. This is gonna be part of my library.

Do want to talk about the dialog; the comments from Jillian. The first thing that popped in my head was... "Daria". And I liked that too.

The best film to compare it with is "Clerks", an odd day in someone life. Cute, sad and entertaining.

Check it out.
