Tockinit not horrible nor great
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
edwagreen You just know that the difficult 14 year old brat was going to bond with the courier in "Special Delivery."What was the girl's father really up to? Why did the mother surrender custody at the time of the divorce? What's really going on with the courier's boss? These are some of the questions that could have been handled better.That being said, we still have a pretty good movie. Of course, it's hard to believe that our "brat" is only 14. She could have passed for a woman.The bonding between the two girls is really significant given the tragic death of the courier's own daughter, which led to the dissolving of her marriage. By the way, the guy who played the husband could certainly double as an Al Gore-look alike.
arm1606 This movie is good, but it could have been better. To me, It was good to see over and over again but that was because i am a big Brenda Song fan. I had seen this movie and i understand the story. as far as i know, Brenda's acting was so-so great. Lisa's acting was better than her role on "House".At first, Alice was a snotty little B****, but towards the end she began to open up to herself and to others. But I have to say, the chemistry between Alice and Max was very unusual. But i'll tell you this much, after watching this movie, I will never see Brenda Song the same way ever again.I say this movie is worth a look. It was not what i hoped to see, but i did like how well written this story is. But don't take my word for it, you just have to see it for yourself.
tvmovies this lady missed the whole point of the movie..it's supposed to be a chick flick, supposed to be a fun romp not a plot-driven drama- two mismatched indviduals...lisa edelstein (from HOUSE) as the divorced, now childless former DA, who can only stand to now work as a joylesss courier has to pick up- unbeknownst to her- Brenda Song (from SUITE LIFE OF ZACK & CODY)- the spoiled brat of a daughter of a wealthy businessman stuck in China...it's less about intricate plotting or an ex-cop and Asian actor chasing them- and more about the dynamics of these two characters completely at odds with one another- on the run ala MIDNIGHT RUN.Stink a roo indeed- lady you missed the boat, plane and train on this one.
windtar This movie was awful.When a Asian guy with a bit part playing a retired cop and has only about 10 minutes of air time is the most interesting character, run for the remote and switch channels.Its the story of a woman hired to bring a girl from Asia back to Hawaii as her parents battle over custody. The fathers a bigwig in business with guys after him to get his money. The mother is a woman who was screwed over by her husbands power. Sounds interesting right? well, everything i just said takes up only about 10 minutes when pieced together.The plot would have been good if they picked better actors and defined the storyline better. Both main characters, to me, seemed annoying.The woman carrier wasn't feminine at all most of the film, and even after the makeup attempt by the young girl, her boyish mannuerisms outweight her beauty. Why her ex-husband still loved her i have no idea. I saw no chemistry between any of the characters.The Asian girl, from TV show zack & cody i think, was just a brat. This girl is the reason people don't have kids, lol. She wasn't funny nor remotely interesting to me.The story of bad guys after them could have made for fun adventures to make this movie more interesting, but that was left alone after 2 meek attempts at kidnapping.The bad guys were explained in the end, but it left the viewers hanging with no finale to that plot.This is a total chick flick.I give it a 5, and would recommend it only if nothing else was on TV. If you see something else on that peeks your interest in any way, choose that over this made for TV movie.Stink-A-Roo
