hyped garbage
Highly Overrated But Still Good
Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
I have to admit that i only got this movie because i wanted to see David in a part other than Angel since i haven't seen him in one...Also i wasn't too sure about his acting since Angel was mostly an adventure series and Bones too so......But I was wrong...He actually pulled it off with flying colors and without a single glitch as far as i can tell..The movie is awesome...Its funny and romantic...The actors are amazing....Thus the time goes by happily and one can say that when the movie was over i actually wanted more....I can just hope that David can continue making movies like that.....Good movies with fun or adventure if needed....So bottom line, whoever likes romantic comedies or is a fan of David boreanaz shouldn't miss out on this one.
Mr. Fix It is the right way to do a romantic comedy, and it would be your average romantic comedy if it didn't do things to break out of the mold. David Boreanaz is cast perfectly as the lovable Vince Valenteen, and the acting from him is top-notch. It's so nice to see Boreanaz doing something comical rather than all of the morbid TV shows he has been doing. I loved him in Buffy and Angel, and here he really plays against character. Alana De La Garza plays Sophia with an unseen sexiness, and she does it very well.Mr. Fix It plays out in the vein of Hitch, only this film ends up better. Mr. Fix It is a very well-written and well-acted romantic comedy that is not to be missed. Above all, this film is very entertaining, and certainly does not manage to disappoint. Much better than Boreanaz's last effort, These Girls.
I love David Boreanaz, so of course I simply bought Mr. Fix It. The first time I watched it, I realized there may have been a reason it went straight to DVD. I watched it the next day, and I actually like it. It's pretty cute, and has some great one-liners. While it's predictable, and kind of like a backwards Hitch, it's a simply cute romantic comedy with some twists and turns. David Boreanaz is great in a role very different from Angel and Special Agent Seeley Booth, and really gets the opportunity to show off some comedic acting. I recommend this if you're looking for something cute and fun to spend a night.
I was eager to see "Mr. Fix It" because I'm a huge David Boreanaz fan. What I got, though, was a 1-1/2 hour nap. The premise seemed enjoyable: Boreanaz is Lance Valenteen, proprietor of a business called "Mr. Fix It", where dumped men enlist his help to get their girlfriends to take them back.Among the problems with this movie are the editing, script, and acting. Although I've found Boreanaz delightful in his other film roles (with the exception of that "Crow" movie he did), this was disappointing. At times, his character was interesting and others, flat. The supporting cast reminded me of soap opera day players. I realize it wasn't a big-budget film, but some of the scene cuts and music just didn't seem right.My advice: watch at your own risk.
