American Fork (2007)
7/10
Comedy Drama called Humble Pie Not American Fork
1 January 2010
Warning: Spoilers
this is a delightful comedy drama in the mould of 'Juno' and you must see it to see the sensitive acting performance of the guy playing Tracey Orbison, actually a male grocery clerk who has higher aspirations away from the store. I agree with the earlier comment that the story could have welded Tracey better with his female counterpart at the Store, didn't start to happen until the end. Lots of weakness about the film and i think the so called friends who set Tracey up for the supermarket robbery are a bit paper-thin but overall the story worked, even the quirky bit with Traceys sister dating Traceys acting teacher and breaking his heart on a couple of occasions. don't expect a blockbuster, this is a simple entertaining funny (often sad) film which will not leave you disappointed. Hoping for a sequel of HUMBLE PIE 2 (not American FORK) please because Tracey really does have some 'acting' potential for a Captive audience.
