Movie Review: Dinner Rush

Mediocre film. Jesse Traub liked it, but I think that's just because he likes anything played at Teluride (sp?). Anyways, this movie takes place intirely within a restruant (and occasionally the street in front of the restruant), which might seem interesting. It's not. The problem with this movie is that it went on and on and there wasn't all that much of a plot. At least there was a "twist ending", which catches you off gaurd for like 2 seconds before you start yawning again. It seems that the movie script/plot was thrown together randomly. Not much happens and there are a bunch of scenes that don't even help the film in any way. Busy Italian restruant. Former mob-boss owns the place while some rival gangsters eat there. There is tension... not really, actually. It's just a mediocre movie, what else can I say.
2 1/2 stars
