The Price of Kissing (1997) watch online HD

This movie has a few good performances going for it -- and that's all it has going for it. The leads, especially Pauley Perrette, are appealing. (Although some of the bit players seem to be acting from a teleprompter.) The material -- that is the problem. I feel as though the screenwriter/director watched the entire run of Felicity in one sitting, then sat down to write a script without catching any sleep. It really did remind me of Felicity -- a thoughtful young woman finding herself, finding love, with a shake-them-up-and- see-what-happens approach to the characters and their relationships. Except that while I usually enjoyed watching Felicity, this movie left me cold. The writing is just awful. It's amazing that the cast could come off as well as they did, as the dialogue is dull at best. At its worst it becomes trite, stilted and amateurish. There is nothing original here, with plot elements recycled from gimmicks that weren't so brilliant to begin with. (Angels and fortune tellers? Come on.) For the first half of the movie, I rooted for the actors and hoped to be rewarded for my patience. By the second half, I just wished for it to end already. My sympathies to the cast, who deserved a better vehicle for their talents.

I liked this movie because it had a certain fluidity to it in that it moved from scene to scene with grace. The story of a young lady trying to find love is not new, but the presentation of vodoo magic & angels lends to an air of the mistique 1 might hope for. It held my attention thru-out.

The only interesting part of this movie was it's jazz and reggae New Orleans back drop. It tries to be one of those movies that has two struggles the heroine has to overcome, one from the past and one from the present which she fails to do convincingly. The acting's bad and the direction is even worse. I'm not surprised at all that this went straight to video. The end result of this film leaves no one satisfied or convinced including the actors themselves.

Love is about hurting... love is about overcoming yourself to find your sulfate, which might not be uniquely defined, but once you find him no one else matters. I think the allusion to voodoo and magic is very poetic. Because this is how love works. In a mysterious way, above all conventions and compromises we are taught growing to commit to. Love doesn't abide by fidelity, loyalty, commitment, beautiful words, or romantic gestures. But it does require you to be there for the one you love or the pain you will feel will be so excruciating that will squeeze yourself to complete oblivion. Love doesn't kill but it does make you stronger. You have to look for it genuinely you have to let it mold your character solidify your foundations. Even if you lose it or it doesn't converge to being together with someone at least you will cherish the knowledge of what it means to love.

This movie is my personal anthem as what has happened in my life up to this point. I can't help but to feel the same as Rene in this movie. It all clicks, no other movie has done this for me. Personally, I would recommend everyone to see this movie. However, I know this movie would not interest everybody. However, I would recommend this to the younger movie crowd as a must see at least once.

Not an interesting film featuring characters we don't really care about. A good cast of actors waste their talents and time with this film. Leon, who has done better, produced this film, so I can't help but wonder how true this film is to the script he read. Loretta Devine tries hard but can't save this film with her immeasurable charm. And Jon Seda, who is this close to becoming one of Hollywood's biggest leading men, is completely wasted as well. Not a completely bad film. Just not a good one. Better luck next time people.

This low-budget indie film redefines the word "blah". It will surprise most that this word can actually be found in the dictionary, defined as: "nonsense.. uninteresting, dull, lifeless". The movie redefines the word because I would have to add to those four words: "PC crap", "pretentious on a pathetic level", and "pointless".

The film tries so hard to be "hip" and "in touch" with contemporary beautiful-people-struggling-for-je-ne-sais-quoi behaviour and "thinking" (do they think?). There is almost no plot to speak of, though there IS one to sleep to. The phoniest and most politically-correct things about it are how a white woman is great friends with a young, black stud, the black street-sax-player with a penchant for oh-so wise council and advice, and the fat black psychic. Isn't it beautiful how the races can get along after all?... Ahhhh... In the end, the woman reads out "poetry", which is nothing more than one of her dull "dear diary" entries. She gets a standing ovation(!!!), although in real life her listeners would have more likely than not dozed off into deep slumber. But this movie has little to do with real life, even though that is where it's supposed to be happening. In real life her "poetry" reading would have gotten standing ovations only if she had the sense to include the juicy, sexual details. "And then I rubbed his huge penis against my sweaty, impatient pink little vagina..." Cheers! What's worse, the lead actress has a dozen scenes in which she either bathes or screws with someone, yet they never have the sense to show her breasts, which was clearly the only thing left to save this mess.

The black guy and the blonde, who are separated by about a meter in height, hook up: they look like a cheap variation of Rodman and Madonna (as if the latter two aren't a cheap enough combination already). Nicole Eggert, mentioned by Howard Stern in his "Miss America" book, is the blonde. Stern writes of Eggert that she took her implants out. Yet I believe that when they took her implants out they also sucked most of the meat out of her flesh and muscles by mistake, for she looks starved here.

The sax player in one scene develops angel-like wings; he looks like Al Roker advertising angel food cakes.

This movie is anything but ordinary. It really had a deep impact on my life.

i understand that not everyone can understand it. i read some bad comment and i know some people can get it that way. but It was truly magical for me! maybe it's not realistic but it wasn't supposed to be! i was 13 or something when i first saw it and i like to believe it toughed me few things on life. i watched it around 20 times over last 7 years or so.and i still think it's amazing!

i know that there are people who didn't like this movie.but don't rely on anyones comments before you've seen it yourself! excellent cast!i highly recommend it!
