Committed Reviews

Aug 1, 2021

Interesting themes explored in quirky and fun ways. Also young Mark Ruffalo is actually pretty hilarious in his role here.

Light and fun at times, it doesn't require your full attention.

The lighthearted romantic comedy Committed has Heather Graham going for it, but that's about all. Graham is incredibly charming and lights up the screen in every scene. The script however, is garbage: a devoted wife goes in search of her missing husband who's left her to work through a mid-life crisis. Though it acts like it's saying something profound about faith and relationships, it actually doesn't. Co-starring Luke Wilson, Casey Affleck, and Clea DuVall, the cast isn't all that bad; it's just that the characters are poorly written. A disappointing film that's all over the place, Committed is a confusing mess that doesn't payoff.

I enjoy this movie. I think Graham was exceptional.

One 'critic' at this site described Heather Graham in 'Committed' as 'thoroughly wearisome'. We must have watched a diffrernt movie... Quirky and nicely done overall, Ms. Grahams performance was a beautiful thing to watch. The entire cast was excellent or at least very good and always believable, Great photography & vivid locations - I guess if you're raised on action flicks and blockbuster ship-sinking movies, real life (or at least this fine movies version of real life) seems pretty bland. It's a thoughtful, sweet movie and easily worth watching. Netflix gave it 5 stars which is why my wife and I watched it, and we are very glad we did.

I love movies about stalkers. ^_^

This movie was painfully stupid. Also, I'm on three different kinds of medication for the fact I destroyed my back. But I totally loved it. (Me and 31% of Flixster users.) I can't think of another movie that tells this story though of putting yourself through a relationship where the other person doesn't want you anymore, and letting it drive you crazy, and then picking up the pieces and still being in love with everyone around you. So nice to watch people not behave as years of sitcoms and television dramas have told them they should.

It will not be one of your favorites, but it will not be one you regret the loss of two hours.

It was an interesting movie but unfortunately not that interesting, or funny, or romantic, or whatever it was meant to be, it's just an average movie you would watch and forget.

Any movie that has a person taking a BUS from Manhattan "out to Long Island" has just got it all wrong. Do some research people. Besides the acting feeling awkward for most of the characters, the Graham character rents a Lincoln to drive from NYC to Texas???? WTF? Glib set ups and Glib pay offs. Cute but not cuddly.

This is a simple, good little film that did not go over well in theatres, but was a hit at the Sundance Film Festival. The cinematography is quite good and somewhat reminiscent of "Bottle Rocket", and the cast delivers solid performances. Heather Graham stars as a committed wife and New York club owner named Joline who basically stalks her husband Carl(Luke Wilson) who moves to an isolated area in Texas to "find himself". He does the occasional photography gig for a local paper, but is not capable of taking control of his life. As he is in his trailer with an option to buy, Joline watches and even becomes chummy with Carl's few neighbors, the woman he's dating, and even encourages Carl's editor to give him better assignments. Mark Ruffalo is quite good as Carl's girlfriend's jealous, truck driving ex-lover who Joline actually protects Carl from. The supporting cast of Casey Affleck as Joline's brother and Dylan Baker as a neighbor who's quite taken with Joline works quite nicely within the confines of this film. Heather Graham is definitely overlooked as an actress who has a charm that comes through in various ways. Though this film does lack focus with a script that's all over the place, it comes together enough to make this film entertaining for what it is.

When the ever-optimistic Joline (Heather Graham) faces a challenge when her husband, flaky news photographer Carl (Luke Wilson), leaves her to find himself in Texas. Joline tracks Carl down and observes him, acquainting herself with his schedule and new friends including his new girlfriend, Carmen (Patricia Velasquez) and his quirky neighbor. Eventually Carl spots Joline, and Joline seeks new ways of returning Carl to her life, up to and including mystic remedies provided by Carmen's grandfather.

Peculiar little movie, but an interesting odyssey to experience. Great character performances.

Ok I thought the writing was really good in this movie. BUT. It was all out of place. It is like they had the right idea for a good movie, but just threw it together last minute. Heater Graham's and Luke Wilson's characters where just not right. They were not played well. The only actor that seemed to do a decent job was Casey Affleck. So all in all, it was decent, just wish it was better.

The story was so boring, there was nothing exciting in.. It was definitely one of Heather Grahams worst movies. Too bad, because I like her very much. I was also disappointed in Luke Wilson and Casey Affleck. This film is just not interesting.. I think watching it is a bit waste of your time.

**1/2 (out of four) Fun but flawed comedy with Heather Graham as a woman who travels west to try an locate her husband who had left her. Some of the situations work. mostly due to the competent cast. But the idea loses steam along the way.

Feb 20, 2009

I usually can't stand Heather Graham, but I thought she really fit the part of Joline, an extremely passionate woman who has absolutely no problem with commitment. However, her extreme faith in people seems to be her downfall. Throughout the movie she takes a journey of self actualization and maybe a little road trip to Texas. I hate to spoil movies, so the viewer will have to see if Joline can find a balance of committemet without losing control of her life.

HUH? What was the point here? It COULD have been funny, could have had a point. I want 98 minutes of my life back
