Hilariously Funny!

We laughed out loud many times in the movie! Well written. Well acted. Incredibly funny. It pokes fun at a lot of things but it's all in good taste and with class.

It's very family friendly and people of all ages can relate. We took our 6 year old and she liked it and laughed a lot as well.

It's slow to start, but eventually delivers some good laughs

It's not that the movie (pace) is very slow at start. It's a little slow, but, that's kind of the point, our protagonist, by choice, lives a slow life. What's really slow is getting to some laughs. There's some intent there, but, it's not well executed.

But, once all the characters are established, including the cute love interest and crazy famous actor, things start to warm up. There are some good laughs. Sure, the best ones seem to be making fun of the "celebrity culture", but, those are not all of them.

Another big problem is that there is an obvious wasted opportunity to make more fun of Twilight and similar "young-adult sagas". There's some critique, but, it actually feels more like the movie is "tagging along" rather than exposing Twilight and its ilk for what they are - empty shell(s). Just saying that is no enough - after all, it should be obvious.

Acting is OK, but not great. Betsie Tullough does a good job, but, she doesn't "sell" her growing affection for the protagonist well. It starts good, but, later we don't really see any progress and when she feels betrayed (because he didn't tell her that he's the actual author of the "Siren" saga),it doesn't seem to bother her as much as it should. Protagonist, Gorham, "does his thing", portraying this bad-adjusted talented writer with all his quirks, but, somehow, fails in the same area as his partner, also not showing his growing affection for Betsie Tullough, nor the devastation when she dumps him - and he should be devastated, she's the only woman willing to spend time with him and it looked like she loved him. So, both are OK, but, miss a very important element.

Unlike them, the crazy actor is well portrayed by Sebastian Roche. A little over the top, but, it's a comedy, to be expected.

So, it's a movie with several flaws, but, in general, its heart is in the right place and it does deliver good laughs eventually. Thus, you get what you can expect from a comedy.

Pleasant little movie....

Not much to see here but a good-natured time waster (whose 83 minutes or so means you don't waste much time). Christopher Gorham plays the writer of a wildly popular set of novels about a Merman (a la Twilight) that he's embarrassed to have written (under the pseudonym "Sally Carmichael.") However, his publishers won't let him out of contract given the upcoming movie version of his books. Through a series of circumstances (involving a pretty bookshop owner),Gorham write an article criticizing his own books that goes viral. It's all resolved neatly (as these kinds of movies are) but Gorham does a good job as the anxiety-ridden author who gets outed as the author and has to make peace with popularity of his books. A stronger script could have explored these themes a bit more effectively and I would have jettisoned the character of the overenthusiastic actor who ends up revealing Gorham's identity. The movie kind of slows way down whenever he's on the screen. Wait through credits though for a scene from the movie version of the Merman books. It's brief but a real hoot!
