Four eyes, four legs, four arms, four hands.
The premise of this film is fantastic especially for singletons who yearn for and loath those who become four-eyed monstors inseparable from the moment their eyes meet and stuck at the hip. The film starts out hilarious with snap shots of couples and men proposing on video tape to their future wives. It's very sweet and funny. Then, it gets a little boring and more home-video quality. You keep watching waiting for that same intro humor to return; the post-it notes give you hope, as do the snip-it interviews, but alas, you're still waiting when the credits roll. I'm glad I got to see this at Slamdance, 2005, however I wouldn't recommend it. I'd love to see the film-makers spend more time on the theme and construction of their story. It has a lot of potential.

Yeah, def don't hold us to our slamdance cut, as we've traveled on the film festival circuit at most screenings we've asked the audience questions during Q&A's to see if our ideas were landing and improved the film when ever we have time and feel pretty solid about the current edit and might even make a couple more changes before the DVD, anyway, thanks for talking about our film and for the few compliments in the comments here, we love spout, keep it up everyone,

There have been a bunch of revisions since you saw it at Slamdance. I first saw it in April of '06, when people told me it was very different. I was impressed. I've since seen two more cuts in June and in September. It's even quite different since June, and it's really solid. Feedback on the new cut has been very positive. It's screening this month. info here:

I've not yet seen the film but the video blogs are absolutely fascinating. You wouldn't recommend it? Potential is good right?
