Cupid & Cate is fast-food drama, but you can't turn away from a movie with a dazzling cast including Mary-Louise Parker, Peter Gallagher, Philip Bosco, Bebe Neuwirth, Brenda Fricker, and Joanna Going. This Hallmark Hall of Fame TV movie features Parker as Cate, proprietor of an upscale, second-hand clothing store. In handy dramatic terms, the shop is a gleaming repository of old memories--memory itself being something like emotional quicksand for black sheep Cate, who blames her domineering father (Philip Bosco) for her sisters' over-achieving ways as well as for the suffering of her late, alcoholic mother. Newly freed from an engagement to a chilly Brahmin type, Cate begins her life anew with the arrival of a near-perfect fellow (Gallagher) who adores her but is in an uphill fight for survival. The patchy script is riddled with unmodulated emotional pitches and incredible resolutions, but, hey, those actors are charm personified. --Tom Keogh

For once, the Amazon reviewer is right: this script is a mess. Boy meets girl, should be easy, right? Every screenwriter should know by now the basic requirements. Well, this one didn't. Must be somebody's friend. The script does not give us any reason to like either the boy or the girl, much less love them, which is what we have to do if a love story is going to work.

To make sure this movie is off-putting, they did a number of Mary-Louise Parker. They turned one of the most beautiful faces in the movies into something almost ugly. And Gallagher, as always, is more effective playing a bad guy or a foil.

Maybe you have to belong to a certain ethnic group in order to appreciate this movie otherwise this movie is dull. I frankly don't know. But be careful with this one.

Don't Miss This One!!!.......2006-03-31

I happened to catch this on the Hallmark Channel and thought by the title is was going to be one of those 'cutsy' movies that Hallmark seems to produce. Well...I was pleasantly surprised! This film was a delight. Mary Louise Parker and Peter Gallagher are just adorable together. The story line is very real, and you could just imagine all the situations happening in your own family. It does not have just romantic overtones, but it is also a family drama. I loved it so much that I immediately got the video as soon as it came out. I now own the DVD as well and I can't count the times I have watched it. I just love romance I guess! If you have the chance to see this sweet film, try it, I think you might like it-

A favorite .......2006-02-27

I enjoy Mary-Louise Parker in any setting, from Fried Green Tomatoes to Boys on the Side. This movie was captivating to me because of her unique mannerisms as always, and also because I enjoyed the vintage clothing she wore and sold.
The story line was bittersweet in parts, but the ending was how I had hoped it would be.
The entire cast was excellent in this movie and very well suited to their images.
I highly recommend it unless family turmoil isn't your thing. Mary-Louise Parker at her best.

Better Than You Think..........2003-06-29

I was not expecting much from Cupid & Cate.
After all, after reading that the 2000 film would be broadcast on St. Valentine's week via the Hallmark Channel, I was subjected to the tortures of endless promos for the "Love and Romance" week.
In short, I was expecting the quintessential, dreaded and demonic cash seeking "Date Movie".
You know the drill, a cute little romantic alleged comedy, starring the likes of Sandra Bullock or Hugh Grant or even worse, Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant TOGETHER.
Even commercials or online descriptions of the film, portrayed the film as something like: "The only thing standing in the way of true love for Cate....is her fiancée".

Hand me the remote.... Survivor in the Amazon is on!

To be honest, the film starts off just that way. It was easily predicted that the well meaning, but dull as watching paint drying fiancée would hit the road before the start of the second act. However, it quickly became apparent that the romantic aspects of the film, although genuinely portrayed by an excellent cast, were secondary. The film is primarily about the strained relationship between a father and daughter and how their experiences parallel one another.
It made for fascinating viewing, with outstanding performances from Philip Bosco and Mary-Louise Parker. After struggling to sit through the nearly banal Mr. Wonderful, where Ms. Parker was given 1 descent scene, here she really shines. One can easily see the development in her art over her performances from the early 90's. As good as her performance was in A Place For Annie, she's even better here. A very tender and above all, real performance. Peter Gallagher and Brenda Fricker are also standouts.
Added attractions to the film are beautiful autumn scenes and Ms. Parker's rather eccentric wardrobe (check out her hat during the christening scene, just stunning).
Cupid & Cate is highly recommended viewing and would actually make a better Father's Day DVD purchase than for Cupid's holiday.
I even forgot The West Wing was on.
Three and a half stars out of four.

Cute, but something's missing.......2000-08-21

Ok, so it sounded like a great plot for a movie--you know, lonely girl meets a great guy who "takes her away" from her life--that is, until he gets sick and, well, you know. Mary Louise-Parker is as charming as ever and can always deliver a line for a laugh. Peter Gallagher is also true to form--he is cute and romantic. Still, something is missing... For you guys out there I would definately call it a chich flick, one for the girls to watch with a bag of popcorn and a few tissues. All in all, not bad but then again certainly not oscar worthy.

250,000 people can't be wrong!.......2007-01-19

OK, maybe they can! Although, I have to say, I loved this one, and still stick it in the video player, crank up the music and enjoy it immensely. There are 250,000+ plus people on that beach... amazing!, and awesome to watch. The crowd is going off to his music and the party vibe and the camera work that captures it is excellent... even though I think some of the camera men have dedicated themselves to picking out the hotties!

Personally, I wouldn't want to watch 2 hours of Fatboy mixing because it's not all that interesting. And yes, some of the criticisms are deserved, if you look at it from the angle of pure DJ mixing skills it ain't that great and ego... we'll, yes, there's bucket loads of it, the old Fatboy might just be his own biggest fan... but what a show though! Everyone's enjoying themselves and the music (even though it's probably not a typical fatboy mix) and what more can you ask for from a good night out than that and in the end, it is all about the music.

The disc also has some great bonus features worth checking out including a production interview, commentary by the man himself, audio track selection and a few games and a documentary (code = 303). Slip this one on, crank up the music and enjoy.

Highly recommended.

The Best DJ movie ever made!.......2007-01-01

Why is this the best DJ movie ever made? Because, it captures exactly what its like to be a part of the Dance Music scene. No, not everyone will like it. Either you "get" dance music or you don't. Electronic music is not slow, static or stationary, its created to get people moving, energized... dancing! So, if you plan on sitting on the couch eating twinkies and cereal you may find yourself slightly annoyed. "Why is everyone ejoying themselves and I'm not?", you may ask. Well, turn the volume up, have a red bull and enjoy the music. Fatboy Slim begs for you to be a part of the party. No other movie in this genre has yet to achieve what Live on Brighton Beach accomplishes.

Yes...One Plane Ticket To The U.K. Please............2006-01-12

well....i just recieved this disk and i had very high hopes...let me say, most were met....but there are a couple things i got tired of real fast...first of all, if i wanted to see that many crowd shots, i would have bought "Dancing Party People: The Movie"....i would have loved to see a disk that was mostly the man himself with the giant screen in the background...that would have been cool...show me what it was like being in the crowd, not the crowd itself.....there is a couple quick shots on Chapter 14, about a min into the chapter that show perfectly what i mean....my other complaint is with the man himself.....he really comes across as having a butt-load full of ego....many, many, MANY instances of him striking the "jesus christ pose"...in all of my years of going to parties, i have yet to see a dj do this as much as he does during this set....other than those complaints, i have nothing but praise for it.....i have not checked out the special features yet, just the movie itself and i truly do dig it...the music is top notch, the quality of the picture and the sound is supurb....although this may not mean much, seeing as how this is my first review, i fully recommend this disk to fans of electronica everywhere.....

wish i was there...!.......2005-02-02

excellent music. awesome dancing. so many cool people. i just wish i could have been there. put this DVD on & DANCE!

Kick Ass!.......2003-12-07

I think that this DVD was pretty sweet. When I saw it for the first time I thought yea this is pretty goo, but the more I watched it the more I enjoyed it. I definately do not agree with the skeptics that reviewed this DVD before me. I liked it I would check it out.

Comical and Sad.......2006-12-01

This film takes the viewer on a slow yet dramatic sequence of events that portrays the desperation and challenging obstacles that face the youth in Iran today.

Etti, the young girl who talks of living abroad, is approached by a man (Reza Golzar) that desires to help her. There is an obvious chemistry between these two, one that is platonic in nature.

Etti's behavior throughout this film appears innocent at first but one will notice that she has a different agenda in mind, one of desperate hope, a better future as a result of dissatisfaction with daily life in Iran... which seems to be an understatement among the youth in Iran for many years.

Reza feels obligated to assist Etti yet stumbles upon other obstacles between his own job and family life. Reza's character is laid back and introverted to some degree but remains a man that is skeptical of Etti towards the end of the film.

Many Iranian films that are produced in Iran leaves the viewer with a void at the end. Its up to the viewer to fill the gaps and understand the social dynamics between the character's and the consequences of their actions.

The end of this film "Boutique" is a mystery, regarding the fate of Etti. To the casual viewer, with no knowledge of Iranian cinema, this film provides a glimpse into the dark and often sad ending of Iranian cinema.
