Movie Reviews
A witty gem; better than any 1st run romantic comedy
T. Hall | Seattle, WA USA | 03/20/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"I love finding indie films that are downright funny, with hilarious situational comedy, witty dialog, and engaging, charming acting. So many first-run films are just plain boring, and too many indie films are unapproachable and self-important (like an earlier post about this film: phew!). This film hit on all cylinders, from start to finish. I've recommended it to many others, and they've all agreed.
I see from other comments that this is Carl Kozak's first film. That explains why it relies on story, dialog, and acting, rather than eye candy and elaborate effects. It delivers the same feeling of satisfaction as watching a classic romantic comedy. I can't remember the last first-run movie that i liked as much.
And besides, you'll score points with your friends for finding such a obscure winner.
A great way to spend an evening. Best if viewed with people who like to laugh :-)."

"A very amusing and enjoyable movie. My wife and I both liked it very much, which is rare! The main character has an incredible chain of unfortunate events which somehow remains believable. Not a profound movie, but the nice thing is it isn't trying to be. All in all a good laugh!"
Barrel of Laughs

""To hell with Love" was entertaining and was a barrel of laughs. I really enjoyed the characters, and the story was easy to follow and well planned out. I see a lot of promises among the actors and looking forward to the future movies by Mr. Kozak."
Very Funny

"Every now and again, an unsung film is found that's like a fine diamond. A true find, "To Hell With Love" is actually one of the funnier films of the year. Who can't identify with the plight of this main character? "To Hell With Love" signals the emergence of a true talent in writer/director Karl Kozak, who has fashioned this slice-of-life tale with great humor and poignancy."
