eFilmCritic.com - 8/10 by Erik ChildressHopefully someday we'll look at Taking Chances as just a flash of a very specific time in our nation's history and we'll be able to laugh at more than just the elements that make it a really solid comedy.
User Review - 10/10 by Y.K. Gi simply loved the movie... "we know the best and how to deal with things and move on""
User Review - 10/10 by Christine Dthe film is eerily presient regarding much that is going on in our country right now-the loss of jobs and prosperity-outrageous monetary scheming and get rich quick mentalities bringing a town to possible ruin. justin long and emmanuelle chriqui have a chemistry that keeps the plot genuinely engaging and dramatic-both a romance and a meditation on values, legacy and the lost 'american dream.' but not to fret, there are plenty of belly laughs provided by the entire cast-most particulary rob corddry as the conniving mayor who would sell his children to bring the indian casino to their town.
User Review - 10/10 by Nicki MThe sense of humor in this film is one of a kind. It's understandable that it has low ratings, probably due to viewers with a lack of an obscure taste in humor. Justin Long portrays a hilariously remarkable American Revolution obsessed character that could not have been played better by anybody else.
User Review - 8/10 by Navin JCute movie, typical justin long movie with a lot of good lines and interesting characters. I was very satisfied with the ending and was worried that somehow that they would take the All is Forgiven route. Music wasn't that good.
User Review - 6/10 by Shawn BI consider myself a pretty big Justin Long whore, I mean fan. I think he's an incredibly talented, very very funny (both physically and in the traditional sense) and just a damn fine actor, especially of my generation. Speaking of my generation, he is the Bill Murray of exactly that. So I plan on checking out every one of his fine films. And Taking Chances is just one of those. Justin Long plays Chase Revere, a young man who is just trying to write some of his own history in a great big world. Director Talmage Cooley takes us with him on his first feature film in which he also wrote. Chase is the towns soul means of retracing its important history, though no one else really seems to care, even his own father. His best friend in the whole world, Digger, lets him in on the towns newest secret. They plan on building an Indian casino right on the field that at one point or another housed a very important battle during the Revolutionary War. Digger is played by Keir O'Donnell, a very talented young actor whom you may remember as Todd from Wedding Crashers and more recently as the main baddy from Paul Blart: Mall Cop. Soon Chase drives by a very beautiful Lucy, played by the equally beautiful Emmanuelle Chriqui of Entourage fame. Together Chase and Lucy start a protest of the new casino, much to the chagrin of the rest of the town, as they are all excited for the possiblity of new income. But what the town doesn't know is that the Mayor (played expertly by Rob Corddry) and some other folks are putting most of the town up as collateral for a bribe to the Indian clan to build on their land. The story takes a turn for the worse when Lucy, who Chase is really starting to fall for is ousted as having an affair with the Mayor, which totally makes Chase rethink everything about his character and his future. And to me, that is the downfall of the movie. I get it, things don't always work out for the best and not every scene has to be happy. But I just think this particular arch of the story is not needed. But then again I guess they had to have a reason to go from point A to point B. I just wonder if something a little more creative and not so detrimental could have been used. But thats just coming from a me. Middle of the story arch aside, the ending is one of the better ones I've seen. I won't give it away, but I will say it isn't the ending I wanted to see, but it still worked on a high level. I'm a sucker I guess ... I probably always will be.
User Review - 6/10 by Nik Bpretty average movie huge fans of emmanuelle chriqui and justin long so i had to check it out
User Review - 6/10 by Justin GKind of a neat little story with a surprise ending. It's a story that could happen in any small town during a down economic time. Worth checking out. Accepted is still my favorite Justin Long movie but this one is not too bad either.
User Review - 4/10 by Bruno PI sincerely don't know what's going around in this movie... I mean, I love both Justin Long and Emmanuelle, but the movie was so dull I fell asleep one hour into the movie or so. Maybe someday I can re-watch this movie and actually stay awake for the whole thing.
User Review - 4/10 by Peter MIll be brutally honest and say this was just plain dull. Inofensive but dull.
