Happy Accidents (2000) is perhaps one of the oddest movies I’ve ever seen. But it’s one I’d watch again in an instant. We stray from the mainstream path and take a gamble on this small, decade-old indie film. What we get is a quirky movie with a lot of charm that delivers a very unique cinematic take on the nature of love and relationships with an unexpected science fiction twist.
The plot is a bit out there, but the “out-there quality” is something that I think should be fully embraced. You’ll think it’s going to be just another typical rom-com,

Adventures in Babysitting—Putting the Fun Back in Film

What hurts a movie can be its overachieving attempts at seriousness. It can try too hard and have its goal be to something along the lines of creating an “artfully sensitive take on mankind,” and not to actually produce a movie with any inherent ounce of entertainment value. The best thing for a movie can be that it gives you a fun story that entertains you for a full hour and a half, something that isn’t trying to be branded fluffy film terms like “tastefully tact” or “organically clever” by the critics. Simple can be best.
