Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Sasha Reydman I am an immigrant, so for me "American" film industry kind of simple, predictable, boring, like pop music, it is product line, but for sure there is some diamonds, and No Way Joe is one of them. It is not for sale! There is amazing music! "coach" song - awesome! Lots of information to think about Good actors, good camera man.I wish there will be more movies like this, and not "popcorn" movies that kills your time and then you leave with empty head and wont be able to recall after one year what this movie was about... This movie will leave something in your head and in your heart, for sure! Unfortunately people don't like to think, and movie with guy that jumps and shoot for 2 hours more popular than movies like "no way Jose" You can see it by rating and budget. But there is always people who not run after money, they make movies like this and make this world better! Love you guys!Thank you!
bigman1968 Worst movie that i've ever seen, really, and i'm 48. OK you ask for 10 lines text. this is the worst movie not funny not interesting not even clever he thinks he is some kind of genius, and he is just dumb. Don't even try to watch this senseless movie. Who paid for the make of this corpse? This guy should work somewhere else, like a mcdonalds or 7 eleven Stop thinking you are funny Goldberg, you are the joke. Why you keep asking for ten lines? is not enough suffering whit this atrocious movie? God i hope he will never try to make another piece of garbage like this one. Respect yourself Goldberg and go back to your moms house and finish your high school. i hope you can find peace someday because this movie is a real fraud.
movie lover I'm writing this while the movie is running on Movie Central in Canada. Gosh, this is terrible, terrible, terrible. I'm not talking about story or plot or acting: Just what the picture looks like. Yes, it's a low budget movie, but I've seen better -- much better -- visual quality in undercover documentaries and home movies shot on iPhones and GoPros. The framing of the shots in 16:9 is worse than bad (sometimes, half of the actor's heads were cut off horizontally -- one can tell that common top for concurrent release in 4:3, 16:9 or 1:2.35 formats was never a consideration), and often out of focus (ever heard of depth-of field or lighting control?). Shots and counter shots in dialogues lack integrity in terms of color, contrast and focus -- and, if it weren't for actors wearing the same cloths through the shots, one would guess that different scenes were hacked together. In inside shots, one can see the overhead microphone boom reflected in the glass of the patio door -- which wouldn't be all that bad if the mike position was static, but one can see how the mike was pointed at the actors as the dialogue moves along between actors, and seeing such visual artifacts totally took me out of the movie. Yuck.Oh, yes, and then there's tripod shot contrasted with jittery hand- held shots without steady-cam. It must be cool to say FU to an audience that is supposed to make work commercially viable. As I said: Terrible, terrible, terrible. But, hey, if you happen to be a visual masochist, you actually may enjoy a movie that looks like a failed high school project. I hope Goldberg gets a chance to make more movies -- but he needs (and deserves?) much better people behind the camera and in the editing room, specifically, he needs people with a sense of aesthetics, and enough trained skills to create visually pleasing images. For all I know, it's eye candy that sells movies even if the story is bad, but the lack of eye candy kills any good story. Else, it's just a radio play. In a nutshell: I believe that the people handling cameras and managing post owe it to the actors to make them look as good as possible -- which certainly hasn't happened here. That being said, nobody looks as bad (or out of focus) as much as Goldberg himself. The movie leaves me guessing if he wanted to commit visual suicide. Bad as it is, there were some (but not enough) good shots in the movie: The underwater shots in the pool consistently were very nice quality and better than the movie as a whole. OK, the movie's over.

Hellmant 'NO WAY JOSE': Two and a Half Stars (Out of Five)Adam Goldberg wrote, co-produced, directed and stars in this indie dark comedy flick. It was made on a budget of just $1 million and tells the story of a struggling musician, who's dumped by his fiancé; because she discovers a dark secret from his past. The film co-stars Ahna O'Reilly, Eric Siegel, Anna Belknap, Gillian Jacobs and Pat Healy. The material is not nearly as humorous, or as clever, as Goldberg thinks it is!Jose Stern (Goldberg) is a 39-year-old musician, who's rock band can only get gigs at children's' parties. He's about to turn 40 and also wed his longtime girlfriend, Dusty (O'Reilly). While the two are in bed together, one night, Dusty learns a dark secret from Jose's past. What's worse though, is that he's been lying to her about it (since they met). So she dumps him, and kicks him out of their place. Jose sinks into even greater depression; and harasses his friends about it (Siegel and Belknap), while crashing on their couch. I think I used to like Adam Goldberg, once upon a time, but now I think he's just annoying (in this film at least). He reminds me a little of Jay Baruchel; but Baruchel is much more gifted (and funny). This movie is kind of a pain to watch, if you feel the way that I do about Goldberg. His directing isn't bad, and he's still an OK actor, but his idea of comedy just doesn't work anymore.Watch out movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: https://youtu.be/ItzCr1Etfyo
