  • Hilarious and quirky. Not unlike a comedic hybrid of Napoleon Dynamite and The Maltese Falcon. No idea why it isn't enjoying better ratings? Perhaps the old "made for TV" stigma lingers on in some form of misguided disdain for that which never required a ticket stub?

  • This was better than I anticipated. What more can you expect from a film where greeting card writers are treated like royalty? Bizarre at times and offbeat, but enjoyable, thanks to a great performance from Bob Odenkirk.

  • Enjoyed the movie because it was different, and the main character is relatable.

  • The premise for this movie is very silly, but once you buy into the world of greeting card writers, it is very funny and quirky. The whole cast is great, and especially Bob Odenkirk as the depressed greeting card writer (who only writes romance cards and doesn't have time for the other shit!). He meets a fan (played by the always great Amber Tamblyn), and romance ensues. Some of the lines that made me laugh out loud was between these two: "How many cats do you have?" and "Really, you don't walk around all the time in a red smock with a nametag?" There is also a murder mystery which resultas in some very funny scenes. All in all, I enjoyed this movie very much!

  • While this movie can be slow sometimes, the directing is really unique and interesting. Bob Odenkirk's performance is great as always, and there a lot of dark humor elements that are fun.

  • Not what you expect and well done. Great Bob Odenkirk.... great cast too, Familiar faces and good actors.

  • Dark and mildly funny, Odenkirk is a gem, but there really isn't much plot to base anything on. It's a typical cheap Netflix movie, shot in LA with a cast of recognisable character actors from TV. The best part is, it's only 70 minutes. Watched on Netflix at home, February 28, 2017.

  • I found this film fun and easy to watch. The plot and the deadpan delivery are hilarious. The grittiness of the greeting card industry!

  • What a blast! But also weird! Don't expect your formula comedy here. Reminded me of The Big Lebowski and Wes Andersen.

  • A neat, weird little film that calls to mind Fargo and Office Space. It's a dark comedic romp that really surprised me and frustrate others. I did not expect it to go 'there'.

  • One of the funniest movies I've seen in awhile. But, I can understand how it may not be for everybody. It has a very dry and subtle sense of humor. Also has a sort of BIG LEBOWSKI meets CHINATOWN vibe. This movie is FUN and surprised me in the best of ways.

  • It feels like they should have condensed it into a half hour short. B-
