Nikki: Luke! Luke, I know you're right in there!
Luke: O! Nikki! What a suprise. I almost didn't hear your banging and screaming. What can I do for you?
Nikki: This thing can not happening.
Luke: You're storming up and you're interupting my work. I could not agree more.
Nikki: No, you're interupting my work. I'm trying to record my podcast.
Luke: Hm, that's right. A little podcast.
Nikki: You know we have more than five million subscribers so that's not exactly what I would call a little.
Luke: Hm, you know what I have? A real job. And I get to back so...
Nikki: And you write jingles for cereal companies! Your job is no more legitimate than mine. Yea, ever since you moved here I can't go through one recording session without you just ruining everything. I can't, I can't keep living like this!
Luke: What you want me to do about it?
Nikki: Play your piano in some other time!
Luke: To play my piano, play my piano, play my... Would 6 am suit majesty?
Nikki: I just need you to be quite between hours 12 and 4 pm.
Luke: Oh, you see that is when my creativity is at its peak. Can't you record your podcast in some other time?
Nikki: No. I have listeners accross the country. That's the time zone sweet spot.
Luke: Then I guess we have a stalmate.
Nikki: Well I lived her for longer so I have seniority.
Luke: Ha ha ha.
Nikki: And I happen to know that you have a propane barbeque on your balcony and it would be such a shame if supervisior would found out.
Luke: Fine. You can have noon to 4.
Nikki: Thank you. Thank you for your cooperation!
The first pretty obvious issues are audio one. Most scenes suffer from barely passable to bad audio issues like audio was recorded on cell phone. It's not horrific like in some other ROE TV movies, but still bad. Music was barely passable and several scenes have loud background music so hearing properly dialogue is a bit of problematic. Still not horrific like in some other ROE TV movies. And there are few small bad cuts.
And then there is an issue of the obvious fake location. I don't know why M. Rosner decided to abandon Edmonton as real location. Acts I and III take place in Boston, and Act II in Martha's Vineyard. Fake location is somehow passable until helicopter and picnic scene, then everything goes down the drain as it's so obvious fake.
Most of the cast is recycled from the previous M. Rosner movies which is both good and bad. I would say that M. Rosner was better than in many of his other movies. Writing was all right.
Another issue but it didn't have influence on the final score is almost completely wrong movie description posted by ROE. Does anybody at ROE who posted description even watched trailer, not to mention movie? No, Nikki wasn't dumped by her boyfriend the day before she meets her new editor. She didn't even had the boyfriend (so called Mr. Right), and she didn't meet her new editor, she met the owner of publishing company. I'll have to submit new description...
And obligatory don't watch trailer because it's ROE one and it shows whole movie compressed.
