The film stars Bronson Pinchot and Ruben Santiago-Hudson as Devon and Samuel, two lounge lizards trying to get their big breaks in Hollywood, while simultaneously rolling with the punches dealt to them by life. When Samuel discovers that he's suddenly developed psychic powers, hijinks ensue and the two pals surprisingly learn a thing or two about love. Also starring Amy Carlson and Christopher Murney, Winning Girls Through Psychic Mind Control premiered at the 2002 Seattle International Film Festival. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Matt Singer, Village Voice
Director Barry Alexander Brown never reconciles the outlandish premise with the screenplay's schmaltzy dialogue.
-
Anita Gates, New York Times
The drummer in a struggling lounge act finds himself possessed by four wise entities in a comedy directed by Barry Alexander Brown.
-
Maitland McDonagh, TV Guide's Movie Guide
A clever, offbeat and consistently surprising dark comedy.
-
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone, TheMovieChicks.com
We get a nice mix of comedic and dramatic moments with a performance that's a departure for Bronson Pinchot - he shows that he can act like a normal people with genuine problems and a broken heart.
-
Steve Rhodes, Internet Reviews
A smart romantic comedy/drama in which Pinchot does a very touching piece of dramatic acting.
