Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
A small town waitress gets a nail accidentally lodged in her head causing unpredictable behavior that leads her to Washington, D.C., where sparks fly when she meets a clueless young senator who takes up her cause - but what happens when love interferes with what you stand for? Accidental Love is the kind of film where you question yourself with questions such as: Why did i watch this film? Why did good actors such as James Marsden, Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal star in it? And how in the hell did it took so many years to be released? But after seeing it it made perfect sense for example it had bad acting, bad jokes and the actors felt like they were reading their lines from a piece of paper that they were holding during production plus David O. Russell has made way better films like Three Kings, Joy, American Hustle and Silver Linings Playbook but this? Let's just say that it should have stayed forgotten as it was. (0/10)
Well guys, I'm afraid that what I stated in the title is just plain truth. I watched the film (and I enjoyed it too) and then I realized that all I did was watching Jessica Biel and thinking that she was really pretty.Athletic, radiant, with a beautiful smile and a sweet voice, she did more than just stealing the scene: she monopolized my attention. And the movie seemed just an excuse to make her act and let the audience enjoy.The film, on the other hand, was not too bad: I'm sure that (unless you are 6 or this was your first film) you have already seen something like this but the Authors however strove to enrich the plot with funny and original situations and the production was excellent (great director, great actors, great staff).
There's a specific reason as to why this film Accidental Love (Nailed!) was never supposed to be released and why it had been released seven years from it's original filming date back from 2008. Released in early 2015, and one must note. A belatedly finished comedy released against David O'Russell's wishes (unknowingly he disavowed the unfinished film) which has been cobbled together by the new owner Millennium Films and he negotiated to take his name off the picture. The director credit now goes to Stephen Greene. The film is unfinished and it is clear as the editing looks sketch, as well as it is very unfunny, not great acting and overall forced. The comedy and plot plays out like a bad SNL skit with a plot that settles like a television show. There is a major reason why the lead actors have not mentioned or discussed this film and why it was not promoted during it's release.
This is somehow a black comedy with over-the-top situations and acting, with a mild, to-late-for-that lampoon about politics and government.It is an expensive film. 26 millions are too much for what it really is.The style it reminds movies from other decades. You even got Pee-wee Hermann in a secondary yet prominent role.PLOT: It's about a young waitress who has a freaky accident that changed her life. She can't have health care and travels to Washington with some other mishaps to pass a health-care bill, only to realize the true face of politics.Well, it is less than it sounds. The movie fails to feel big in that manner. The cast is OK and is doing its best to work with the weird script and material. Jessica Biel looks good and you can admire James Marsden's and Jake Gyllenhaal's effort to give life to their awkward characters. Tracy Morgan is also in this showing his lack of comedic talent, trying to deliver some deadpan oneliners.There is song and a dance at the end that is somehow entertaining. You can fast forward to that.
