The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

There's a shot pretty early on in this movie where the camera zooms in on a screaming woman (who has just been wronged by Mr. Fix It), continuing to zoom right into the back of her throat to her uvula, which then dissolves into a punching bag at a gym. I had low expectations going in, but I see that shot, and I point at the TV screen and say, "HOLD UP now, this guy is a freakin' genius." I haven't seen this director's other films (and judging by their IMDb synopses, I don't want to), but "Mr. Fix It" is cleverly written, well-paced, has some great visual gags, and Paul Sorvino for no apparent reason. It's by no means theatrical quality (you can see the end coming from ten miles away), but for straight-to-DVD, it's in the top tier.The actors all start to look alike after a while (they're all fairly generic LA-types, except for Sorvino and the radiant, subtle Alana De La Garza), and Boreanaz has limited range, but knows how to play to his strengths (unlike, say, that other half of his former TV-romance). He's the smug fratboy who's just a little bit more aware of what's going on around him, closer to his character on "Bones" than the dark, brooding... well, you already know his resume.The meat of the story was fun to watch, the set-up is clever, and this guy does some really evil things to the women he's trying to chase back to their former boyfriends. Does he get his comeuppance? I don't think it's too big a spoiler to say that he does. What happens after that, though, takes only about 5 minutes of screen time and kinda ruined the movie for me. It's difficult to talk about with spoiling it, but essentially, there's a new character introduced at the very end of the story, and we never get to know her, so we don't care. Where a clever plot-twister like "Wild Things" spends 10 minutes of the closing credits revealing the behind-the-scenes, "Mr. Fix It" spend 30 seconds, and expects it to be satisfying.But whatever. The getting there was fun, and I wasn't expecting art. And I always enjoy a good go-kart race. 7/10.

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.

This movie is twisted nonsense from the get-go... Ex-Angel from "Buffy: Vampire Slayer" Boreanaz plays another kind of vampire - Lance Valenteen, who feeds financially off of guys who want back their girls...Valenteen/Boreanaz says he can pull the trick off as he never experienced true love, and there is the crux of this dreck... It seems the scriptwriters feel you're nobody without somebody, what a hump of steaming dog pucks! Does not love of self become key in the ability to love others? I am not surprised to see the author has an Italian name, this concept of completeness via marriage/union to me seems that it is usually based from somewhere in the Mediterranean - be it Rome or Tel Aviv! The best part of the picture was the band scene with Paul Sorvino and his cronies wooing the old widows and appearing to be regaining their youth - albeit lust can play a big a part to rejuvenate or energise as can true love, and that difference in this movie with the senior citizens never seemed resolved to me...When Boreanaz' character learns he was played as he had played before and he was angry this was true and in his mind justified, as would any normal person, despite his own chicanery for profit! Yet when he talked again with his old "friends" so soon? I felt that was nonsense, as for him taking the car back and rekindling his relationship with Sophia/Shaughnessy I felt this was equally unreal - am I the only one who would say to put the car deeply where the sun don't shine? This movie had to be financed and made through know-how, as in I know a friend or family member who can do this, etc.http://bajanreporter.blogspot.com/

Hi all, This was a cute, good little flick. The leading man Lance Valenteen (actor David Boreanaz...the one all the girls are ga-ga about) plays a fiendish Mr. Fix It who hires out his services to seduce the ex-girlfriends of his jilted clients. To seduce them, he gets priviliged information from his clients, then assaults the young lady in question with lots of charm and devasting good looks. Inevitably, they all fall hard for this whirlwind Romeo with chiseled pecs.Just when he's sure they've fallen for him, he springs on them a shower of their worst fears and displeasure coming from your boyfriend and trusted person status. Upon such devastation of their yearn for love and sex, each girl automatically calls on thieir ex-boyfriends for solace and friendship. Et voila, another fee earned for Lance.Lance however, is having doubts about his career just when he must tackle not only his biggest race event as a driver, but as Mr. Fix It too. Sophia (Alana De La Garza) is the haughty ex-girlfriend of Lance's desperate new client. Va va voom can best describe her. With talent, a beautiful flawless face, and a depth to her eye, not to mention someone ALSO thought of giving the girl a script to work for, she makes Lance fall for her! That wasn't a spoiler, what else did you expect from this flic? This is a busy film. The sequence of events actually make sense, this is not usual in a romcom, and you feel engaged. Surprisingly, this movie also attempts to say something about life and relationships and leaves the floor open for you to think what you wish.I'm a Alana De La Garza fan now.And here is the spoiler:Watch out for the last 5 minutes of the film though. This is the war of the sexes....with women usually winning these days. The lead actor's masculinity is castrated in the last five minutes.Apart from that excess, it was a fun smart flic.Cheers from Montréal.
