Deal of a Lifetime

I saw this film with my wife at the opening of the Noosa International Film Festival in Australia. We're just going through our notes, and as I said, what a nice surprise. We sure hope this film gets a decent distribution because it deserves to be seen, especially by kids and their parents. It's perfect for our 12 and 14 year old kids--no violence, good kids (not those nasty, bratty 90210 types), a good thought-provoking message--and just enough high school romance to keep them interested. We're told by the festival it was made in 19 days, which is an absolutely a shocker. Well done where ever you are, and we look forward to your next!!!

I thought that this movie was soooo stupid!I mean the plot was stupid and entire story could have been fit into one 10 minute movie!The only good thing about this movie was Shiri Appleby. She did this movie a little after she started with Roswell.She is a wonderful actress and would be the only reason anyone would enjoy this movie.

In this low budget film we have another retelling of the deal with the devil story. I was curious in that I wanted to see how Michael Goorjian did in a more major role than the supporting part that he always had in Party of Five. (He did OK) and I was curious to see how Shiri Appleby (of "Roswell" did in a movie (she did OK too).

Overall though, two OK performances don't make for a great movie. If you want a "junk-food" movie to pass an hour and a half, this movie may fit the bill. Just don't expect anything new or terribly original here. At least is wasn't painful to watch.

This is an imaginative, visually distinctive film that stands apart from the current, hum-drum collection of high school pics, mostly because it treats its audience with respect and has the visual chops to back it up. This is a romantic comedy for kids and their young parents, with a smart variation on Faust as the agent for the Devil takes the soul of an amoral kid. It's a great idea for young people to be exposed to these themes--temptation, redemption--particularly in the post-Columbine period.

I love Shiri so i bought the movie, but even if she's on the cover she's really just in the movie through like a stalkers eye view until close to the end. The younger guy in the cover wants her and she's like the hot popular chick he cant have, so I he sold his soul to the devil (I think...or the devil's trying to convince him to). it doesn't really mater. I actually didn't finish up to the end it was just too much but yeah I'm sorry it was bad, bad writings,bad acting, bad filming, directing whatever. I think the budget could not have been over $1000 no way. I have seen some great made for TV Disney specials and I recommend anything like that over this. Still love Shiri though ;-)
