First, I would like to express my utmost support for the independent
filmmakers that took the time to actually finish a movie. Despite my soft spot for independent film, I still have the duty of pointing out the weak spots of the film in order to inspire these young hopefuls instead of the contrary.

T.V. the Movie is an independent film about a crew of aspiring filmmakers
who engineer their own TV show, and are suddenly put in jeopardy of losing
their homes, in addition to losing their show as well. So, they are faced with the obstacle of finding the money to keep the house, all while doing their best to keeping the show running.

Now that the pleasantries are over with, let’s get down to why we are here. I decided to touch on the weaknesses of the film before getting to the high
points. The most damaging thing to the movie was how long it took them to
really get into the plot after introducing the problem. Don’t get me wrong,
there are a few films that pull this kind of plot device off, but there must be intriguing dialogue and well written characters. Which leads me to my next point, there wasn’t enough intrigue in the dialogue at the beginning of the movie, and therefore it lost my interest very early into its runtime. There are also too many alternate plot points introduced after the original one.

With that said, the movie did show some promise. My favorite characteristic about the movie was the real life feel, minus the tired reality show cliché. The two roommates, Eddy and Brett had good chemistry, but didn’t stay consistent, although their show, ‘The Adam Bomb Show’ was quite entertaining throughout. In addition, towards the end of the movie, they caught my attention and held it until the credits rolled.. Finally, I didn’t understand why Elmo was there,
but I loved the fact that he was. These aforementioned ups and downs throughout the movie earned it only one and a half stars. Why do I feel this way? For the simple fact, that there were too many problems to start off with. The strong points on display here just were not enough to even it out.
