Director Conor Allyn’s idea of enhancing a fight scene is employing such stale devices as freeze frames and split screens. Read full review

I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this movie. OK, I'll admit it. I'm in real estate myself and when I came across a title that had direct industry implications, I was both excited but skeptical.

I'm in real estate myself and when I came across a title that had direct industry implications, I was both excited but skeptical. So I watched out of principal, just to see how a yarn could be spun around what is essentially a by the book business. Much to my delight, "Pocket Listing" turned out to be a hilarious, engaging, incisive, and supremely well-acted comedy/drama thriller with just about everything that a viewer, let alone a broker, could ask for from a movie about crooked realtor affairs. First off, the story is full of fun twists and turns, the performances from the leading man (very easy on the eyes I must say) and the leading lady (absoloutely drop dead) are terrific, the supporting turns from Lowe and Reynolds are spot on, the Malibu villa itself is to die for, and everything about this film is just engrossing and engaging. Now as a realtor, I must confess that things don't exactly work the way they do in this film -- imagine this as real estate on pumped up glamour steroids -- but watching things get out of hand is part of the fun.… Expand

"It's not real friends... it's real estate." Hell of a quote encapsulating the cutthroat business of real estate and the murky waters of L.A. movers and shakers featured in this superb dark comedy. Great performances from a fresh faced cast, including the super charismatic Jurdi and the"It's not real friends... it's real estate."

A Guy Ritchie style, highly entertaining flick involving realtors, gangsters of all kinds, a hot babe, a badass Rob Lowe, and a Malibu villa. Could you ask for anything more?

I was surprised that the young, up and coming actors James Jurdi, Logan Fahey and Jessica Clark completely stole the show from long time vets Rob Lowe and Burt Reynolds (who is only in it for a short while). The young actors really made this worth watching, and I enjoyed the crime genre set in the flashy L.A. real estate backdrop.… Expand

Well, that's an overstatement, because this film is actually much more interesting and exciting than anything I've come across. Sure, I've witnessed a few crooked deals here and there, but nothing quite as outrageously fun and twisty as what we have here. This is one of those films where the characters are played by exceedingly good looking people, so it becomes easier to stomach their amorality. Fortunately, the talented James Jurdi's main broker character becomes somewhat of a hero by the end, so we can forgive him his earlier tresspasses and enjoy him as an engaging, attractive, sarcastic protagonist. Other beautiful people doing bad things here include the ageless Rob Lowe and the mind-blowingly gorgeous Jessica Clark, who is almost am ethnic, new age Sharon Stone in this role. Overall, "Pocket Listing" is an amusing, occasionally over the top, but always entertaining film about the kind of deals and characters that we love to go to the movies to see.… Expand

Fun and engaging but needed to get to the action a little faster. That said, there's much to enjoy here, particularly solid performances from Jurdi and Boakye (who share a natural rapport and have some of the best scenes in the film together) as well as from a saucy and alluring Clark, whoFun and engaging but needed to get to the action a little faster. That said, there's much to enjoy here, particularly solid performances from Jurdi and Boakye (who share a natural rapport and have some of the best scenes in the film together) as well as from a saucy and alluring Clark, who pays homage to some great cinema femme fetales by playing one fit for a the best kind of Bond film. Don't go in expecting grand realism, just a good time.… Expand

Just awful in all respects. I had to see Burt Reynolds and there he was, a shadow of his younger self. Walking with a cane and barking out his lines like he really cared. Not once did this movie provide a reason to keep watching. Poorly acted and the writing is terrible. The direction had toJust awful in all respects.
