Sadly Over-hyped
Fresh and Exciting
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
When I sat down to watch "Miss Nobody" it was without any prior knowledge about what the movie was about, who starred in it and without any expectations of what the movie would be like. All I knew was that it was a dark comedy.It turned out that writer Doug Steinberg had come up with a rather funny script for this movie. And director Abram Cox brought the story to life on the screen in a very entertaining way.The storyline in "Miss Nobody", shortly summarized, is about a secretary who scales the corporate ladder at record speed but leaves a trail of dead bodies in her wake."Miss Nobody" works out quite well because it is a wonderful combination of dark, twisted comedy and likable characters. And the fact that the cast ensemble were good and did great jobs with their roles and characters was just a plus, of course.And while we are on the topic of the cast, then I will say that Leslie Bibb was doing a phenomenal job of carrying the movie with her performance. And there were some great supportive appearances from talents such as Adam Goldberg, Kathy Baker, Missi Pyle, Brandon Routh, Vivica A. Fox and Barry Bostwick whom all really added a lot to the movie, despite most of them having very small roles actually.The situations portrayed in "Miss Nobody" definitely had a great part to say about the outcome of the movie. And here writer Doug Steinberg proved to be very talented, because he had come up with some very hilarious situations for the characters. There are some good laughs to be had throughout the course of this movie.If you enjoy a dark comedy, then "Miss Nobody" is definitely a movie that you should take the time to sit down and watch. It turned out to be quite a surprise and a very entertaining movie in my opinion.
A very good looking movie that has a fluffy charm, considering its subject matter, that keeps it from becoming a real "black" comedy. It is more like a throwback to an earlier time of whimsical romps with a touch of more cynical modern sensibilities.The casting is dead-on and the Miss Nobody is cute as punch and the actress does a great job in this entertaining and fun story. There is a nice twist and the only weakness is the ending that could be much more in tune with the style that preceded. The film is a successful attempt and it is not very witty or deep, but can be enjoyed as a better than average entry into the now in vogue Premium Cable quirkiness that is always fun in its inoffensive and a bit edgy satire.
frankly i am unfamiliar with the actors in this richly produced 'murder to laugh at' comedy. the laughs are deliciously off color and the (for me) unexpected twist in the plot had me wanting to watch the whole movie again right away!a full cast of wacky and maybe a bit sick characters walk through this story and will keep you wondering 'who's next?' and what will our lead character do with them.this movie is sweetly bitter and in that is the charm to a good one and one half hours of fun entertainment. this might not be the type of comedy some people find funny but then, they don't know what they are missing!ps - the mother is my favorite character!
This film reminded me immediately of one of my favorite films - Amélie. It is delivered in the same quirky, cartoon-like style but without the mesmerizing charm and flowing story line. The acting by Leslie Bibb was fantastic and she did a wonderful job with what she was given. Everyone in the cast was outstanding and acted their hearts out. I can easily see why they all won awards for their performances in Boston. The main problem I found with this movie was that after the first half hour it was so repetitive and predictable, I found myself looking at my watch every 5 minutes. That being said, I appreciated the director's (Tim Cox) dedication to the style of Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie), as I imagine that these kind of films are much more difficult to direct and produce than a straight forward, dark comedy. I was relieved when it all came to an end.
