Molli and Max in the Future

I can't give it the whole 10 stars, because, if there's something that I can't stand almost as much as my tinnitus it is, jazz lounge music...I could put it in the same list as babies crying in airplanes, cats in heat and overly happy parrots, and there's a lot of that music in this movie. Actually I think the whole soundtrack is jazzy music. Other than that it was awesome.

Put in a blender, Futurama, When Harry met Sally, and one of the best written sketches from Saturday Night Live and you'll have this movie.

There are so many kinds of humor, but in here you're going to find the intelligent kind, no rudeness, insult, stupid slapstick or dark. It's just clever and silly, just the way we feel when we are in love.

If you liked the 2006 cult classic Idiocracy then you'll get this as well.

A vehicle for the writer/director to unload on the foibles of humankind (apparently universal themes that apply to alien cultures as well).

There's a presidential election, a plague, a cult, an evil cheese corporation, and two people trying to understand what love is. All this is topical at the moment, but timeless.

Low cost production which adds to the comic effect. A really impressive effort for the writer/director, perhaps his magnum opus - hopefully there's more to come.

The actors played their parts brilliantly, innocently bumbling around until coming to some personal realisations.

Molli and Max in the Future is probably too rom-com centric for sci-fi geeks and too bonko f/x-driven for Hallmark Channel subscribers.

Written and directed by Michael Lukk Litwak, Molli and Max in the Future pays homage to Nora Ephron's When Harry Met Sally, as well as Woody Allen sex farces, all wrapped around a glitzy sci-fi rendering that looks like the backlot of Luc Besson's The Fifth Element. Litwak then takes Ephron and Allen's caffeinated humor and blends it down to a vanilla soy latte. Rude sex and emotional inadequacies are jettisoned in favor of Millennial over-achievement and career depression.

Adapting Annie Hall in outer space makes for a great concept. Honestly though, when it comes to sci-fi and love, most Trekkies, Wookies, and Time Lords might instead opt to simply rewatch the Han & Leia scenes from The Empire Strikes Back.

I'm smiling & laughing the whole way through. This totally deserves a higher score... Low-budget effects just add to the charm. If you like Futurama & Hitchhiker's...then what are you waiting for??? The female lead strongly reminds one of Sarah Silverman in both looks and manner...not that it matters...just sayin.

This movie was a masterclass on acting and humor by Zosia Mamet. She was brilliant while this apparently low budget film was pretty dull in many other ways. The other actors were not very convincing in their roles. It is worth watching despite any failings. I also liked the demon Trump parody that was slipped in as a side story. If you like Doctor Who or Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy you will probably enjoy the sillier aspects of the writing. It does a fairly good job as viewed as a rom com with an emphasis on the comedy. I wish the male lead had been a little stronger as an actor and comic.
