I Hate the Man in My Basement

I love a film that leaves you with questions at the end and this is full of questions and I'm ok with that. I really disliked the main character and his friends and felt sorry for the guy in the basement but that's ok too. Great performances, great story and nicely edited and directed.

I almost didnt watch this because the title alone screams "dont do it," so please excuse my surprise when i say this is a well-done movie. good performances, interesting story, some well-placed humor to not make the lead role a total creeper. the character in the basement couldve used a bit more development. the book scenes couldve gone into more detail, but its cut well enough leave a reasonable impression. worthwhile watch, or victor over low expectations? ignore the title, watch it and find out

Not a long review but I had to leave this. I came across this movie knowing absolutely nothing about it and from the beginning I was glued to the screen. Rarely does a movie catch me like this as I am usually working or playing video games while a I have a movie going. I think it helps with my ADD & Narcolepsy. The slow and quiet pace of this movie combined with a slow but steady build up to some big surprises. I won't tell you any more about but the performances from the 2 lead's were amazing. I've never heard of either of these actors but i will be following them now to see what else they can do! The ending delivers proper closure to the story and will not disappoint. Watch this movie! 9/10

All of the female characters must have been selected for their weird and overly excessive eye movements. Much of the movie is a statement on how people interact on first dates/new relationships when in their 30's.

The director must believe it's cute to grab a boob on a first date, or joke about innuendos related to underage kids - though that humor doesn't entirely rule the movie. I assume he used to vehicle to enhance the theme of awkwardness in being back on the dating circuit. Claude's 40 yr old pal acts like a junior high football player with unchecked hormones. Jokes about masturbation are prevalent and inappropriate to the plot. Humans do not interact like these characters - it reeked of absurd scripting. The plot had potential and some positive moments. I think the movie would only need about 35-45 minutes to keep viewers more engaged and the story moving. The best part of the film was the dialogue between Claude and his girl about 75% through the film. Best actor goes to the detective - he was most believable.

This was a good film. Never over the top, it slowly showed the emotions of all the characters, and made for a good watch.7/10.
