Touches You

Fantastic!

Admirable film.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Here we go again. Boy meets girl; girl grows into woman; boy stays boy. The married men are doormats too and the single ones are Neanderthals. In other words, once again, all the females are Tops and the men Bottoms. Burglar in the house? Don't expect hubby to get too excited. Hubby gets beat up ALL THE TIME in front of you? That's okay,honey, etc. You're just sensitive and that is what I love about YOU!!!And the magic pot? Well, there are people tossing our house and trying to kill us over it but hey, lets' just leave it out and answer the door holding it, etc. Hell, lets' even take it to a motel room so some shady Asian can talk us out of keeping it. I mean, HE won't try anything fishy, will he?And on and on and on. Is this supposed to be screwball? Slapstick? or just people behaving illogically and stupidly?Weak men everywhere. Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

Maybe the movie is a tiny bit familiar, which is why it can't be rated ten stars. Nevertheless, The Brass Teapot is a very, very good movie, both funny and thrilling, well directed, and super well written. The comedy isn't clichéd, the quotes are clever, and the two main character's give great performances. I started to guess the budget of this film, and I guessed maybe four million, five tops, when in fact it wasn't even one million, which is really, really impressive. The Brass Teapot contains several very funny scenes, but also has a serious side as well. There's some moral tucked within as well, but I don't judge movies based on that, but rather how entertaining they were, how much fun I had, and this one was a blast! I loved the dance scene in the beginning while The Clash's song was playing. Overall, a movie that maybe isn't entirely original, but is still unique enough to absolutely make it worth the watch, and Juno Temple is wonderful in this film.

A young couple steal a teapot that they find out dispenses money when they hurt themselves but that's not the end of it's powers. It's an interesting and unusual idea for a film and it works. It plays as a dark comedy drama with a bit of morality thrown in. There are plenty funny moments throughout but also a fair dose of drama as things go increasingly wrong for the couple. The script is sharp, flows along at a nice pace and the story never quite goes where you think it will.The Brass Teapot is helped by strong performances from a strong cast especially the two leads Michael Angarano and Juno Temple who have a good chemistry and both put in excellent performances. This is a rare film that actually delivers more than you think. It is highly recommended and deserves a much higher profile.

The movie was not what i that it was going to be i love it and the two lead actors delivery the comic parts really well Juno temple my be in her underwear for most of the movie but she plays her part well and Michael angarano delivers his comic lines well as for the rest of the cast they deliver good all round performances too also the plot of the movie how far will you go for money is a good morality tale which they deal with well so if you want a movie that makes you feel good and takes you away from mundane life i would recommend seeing this very funny flick i am sure you will enjoy it as much as we did a perfect date night movie
