Nice effects though.
Don't Believe the Hype
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Texan slice of life with characters who live on the edge. Quirky. Unpredictable. Finally satisfying. Glad Pearce gets to speak in his native Australian accent. Even happier that no reference is made to it!
"Results" is one of those tedious, quirky indie flicks with no in-built audience. Worse still, I had a fear it was intended as a comedy, and IMDb confirms this. It's not enough to say that there are no laughs in the movie. There's no humour. Nothing connects as though it is supposed to be funny. It's like another recent movie, "Drinking Buddies". That too was about people talking and doing boring things together, none of it of any interest to the viewer. You have to be careful about the word "weird" when describing something you don't like. A lot of weird movies are fascinating: most of David Lynch's or Cronenberg's repertoire, for example. "Results" and "Drinking Buddies" are not weird in themselves. It is, however, weird that their makers would expect anyone would want to watch them. Seeing a group of people enjoy this movie would be as bizarre as having a group of people stare enthralled at a hole in the wall for seven hours.
Really enjoyed this movie. All the actors are brilliant and the script is so original and funny in parts and the themes quite deep. I'm Scottish and this is definitely our type of humour.If Guy Pearce is in a film it's nearly always good. He must be able to read a script and just know.But it is definitely a romantic comedy DRAMA. If people are expecting a traditional romantic comedy they will be sorely disappointed and this possibly explains the low IMDb rating because this is undoubtedly a good film.Would recommend.
This quirky and unpredictable comedy, I would imagine, will not appeal to everyone but it had enough droll humor and charm for me to end up liking it. The 3 leads here Guy Pearce, Kobie Smulders, and Kevin Corrigan, I thought were all excellent in their particular roles.Smulders captures the screen portraying Kat, an intense, sexy, and volatile personal trainer working for Power 4 Life gym, located in Austin, Texas. The fine actor Pearce plays Trevor the owner of the gym, who's extremely serious about fitness and expanding his business. He's once had an affair with Kat, and they clearly have chemistry between them, but they can't seem to really connect on the same wave length.Along comes Danny (Corrigan) as a walk-in to the gym. He's a strange guy who's looking to improve on his out of shape and nebishy persona. He's just been through a divorce, but unexpectedly has inherited a windfall from his estranged mother who has died. When Kat is assigned to him as his personal trainer, Danny develops a fixation about her, which will lead down paths I didn't expect.All in all, there are a number of aspects of this movie that surprised me, but it does strain credibility at times, for sure. It's not a laugh-out-loud type comedy but more droll and cerebral, and this may not appeal to some viewers. The film, written and directed by Andrew Bujalski, ended up winning me over with its good performances, quirky humor, and an upbeat finish.
