Catherine and Jason are nervously preparing for their first L.A. dinner party. They have moved from New York and are celebrating the sale of their first film, a hit at Sundance. They feel like fish out of water and are intent on making new friends. Keith, a new acquaintance of Catherine's, arrives first, flirting with Catherine and annoying Jason. Soon after, Charlie, a producer who has optioned Jason's new script, arrives with his assistant, Kim. Blake, an indie film guru, gets the last seat and the six of them settle into a weird, tense dining session filled with the hyperbolic movie-talk that only exists in L.A. When a surprise guest knocks on the door, the party takes an unexpected turn. Featuring a veteran cast of television actors including Nancy Bell (Star Trek Voyager), Kevin Chamberlin (Christmas with the Kranks) and Kit Pongetti (The Gilmore Girls). In the tradition of Curb Your Enthusiasm.

The actors shot for eight hours straight in a fully lit and set-decorated house, each individually miked and followed by his or her own personal camera operator. |
| Time OutRaven SnookA low-budget skewering of Tinseltown that's derivative, superficial and way too long, even at just over 90 minutes. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoThe director, Queens-born Adam Watstein, who also edited and co-produced, deserves credit for making a film with modest resources. |
| New York TimesDana StevensLoudmouth Soup, the second feature film from the director Adam Watstein, was shot in a single night with seven actors, eight cameras, no second takes and no script. |
| The New York TimesLawrence Van GelderFor all its experimental intentions, Loudmouth Soup feels familiar: a claustrophobic Hollywood satire that's short on kinesis and long on conversation. |
| Village VoiceAkiva GottliebThis micro-budget amateur-acting exercise plays like "The Anniversary Party" without the frisson of marquee performers behaving badly. We get F-listers playing at being marquee performers behaving badly. |
