Om denne film

Mason, Dennis, and Gabe have worked at the Stanton Family Cinemas for longer than they want to remember, but long enough they don't want to leave. Most of their time is spent messing with customers, watching fellow employees work out their relationship issues and basically just slacking off, but at a cost.Mason has a wife and child at home that he neglects too much, Gabe is considering college, but is scared of failure, and Dennis just dropped out of college after his fianc‚ cheated on him. The three are working things out together at their second home, the theatre, until Mason's wife reveals she's pregnant for the second time and his volatile home life comes to a head. Should Mason swallow his pride and beg his father-in-law for a job? Can Gabe get past his pessimism and fear and leave the projection booth? And can Dennis finally start to deal with his issues? Maybe. But first, they have some customers to ignore.

This will hit home with you. I love the authenticity of the characters and their outlook on their somewhat pathetic situation. It's something anyone who ever had a crappy part time job when they were young (or old for that matter) can relate to. Great cast and writing too. This is a fun one, although I will warn if you're watching it with your kids it can get pretty raw. I mean, nothing they aren't hearing at school I'm sure, but ... uncomfortable. :) Roll a fatty after they're in bed and enjoy!

"Cinema Six" recalls a lot of semi-improvised comedies, but copies none of them. It's more complex than the descriptions can provide, especially in its use of a movie theater as metaphor for a place to hide from your imminent future. At its best, it is uproariously funny, always managing to make us laugh at the characters onscreen, but never forget we are also reflected in them.
