After graduating with "top honors" from a 3-day film school, aspiring cinema legend Jake Barrymore learns that ex-girlfriend, Annie Nicole, is a programmer for the Montreal World Film Festival. Seeing...( read more  read more... ) a great opportunity to have his talent recognized, he calls her and lobbies hard for a festival screening of his breakthrough first feature, leaving out the fact that it doesn’t yet exist. When he can't convince her to accept his movie sight unseen, he tells her that he's dying. Believing that Jake has both a profoundly personal film and a brain tumor, Annie agrees to give him a screening. Now in desperate need of a movie to show at the festival, Jake throws together his dream team: Aspiring Producer and fellow 3-day graduate Larry Finkelstein, their cynical and lecherous teacher Martin Hughes, and a sexy drug dealer moonlighting as an actress. As the festival begins, they race to make Jake's masterpiece, "Shooting from the Soul," a dramatic mockumentary about Jake making a film about himself. With no money, crew or script, can they pull it off in time for the screening, or before the festival can find out that they don't really have a film?

    Not a bad movie. Pretty low budget, but thats not points against it. But with the low budget there was no heart to the movie... It was made with a flimsy idea.. Bu I still love John Cho...and I'm still indifferent about Seth Meyers.

    No French Canadian movies! Blech.

    If you are into independent films and the process and the festivals do just what the title suggests. If not, rent something else. This movie is about a filmmaker that cons his way into a film festival without a movie. It stars Seth Meyers as the confused, lying filmmaker and John...( read more) Cho as his friend and producer.

    It was entertaining. It wasn?t a great movie, but it held my attention for the whole time. My favorite part was when his female lead in his movie decides to leave the film business to sell drugs. Better a pusher than an actress. It made me laugh.

    A funny idea, but it just gets dumber and dumber along the way. A movie about filmmakers that have no idea what they're doing done by filmmakers who appear to have no idea what they are doing. Maybe that was the point, either way, it wasn't very funny.

    Total hit and miss. This seems like the rough draft of a potentially funny movie. Cho with Meyers could be funny, right? Wrong. It offers an interesting premise, but everything in it appears unpolished from the acting to the jokes and ultimately cannot salvage itself in the end. ...( read more)A lackluster attempt at film making if I ever saw one. Do yourself a favor; if you happen to stumble upon this title, just walk the other way and don't look back.
