Sorry, we can't find any suggestions at the moment.
Slick, smug developer Gavin Ransom has a dream: make millions by blanketing the coastal hills of northern California with flamboyant, mini mansions. His sister Olive a raving environmentalist, thinks otherwise, and aims to stop her brother's land gobbling plans. When Zoe Tripp a striking beautiful folk singer, joins Olive's cause, Gavin gets thrown for a loop, falling hard for the striking young woman with the golden voice. Caught between Olive's righteousness and Gavin's affection, the idealistic and innocent Zoe, coached by her parents and a maternal environmentalist must choose between a cause she's grown up supporting, or the affections of a man who stands for everything she believes is wrong.
Leave your thoughts about The Californians.
| Hollywood ReporterSura WoodLargely due to a loose, inconsistent script by Parker and Catherine di Napoli, it plays like a formulaic TV movie. |
| San Francisco ChronicleNeva ChoninSo leaden and obvious it's too somnambulant to be funny. |
| User ReviewSteL PI wasn't expecting much, but this was a pleasant surprise. More than it's face value drama, this is a sort of satire and analysis of who you let influence your voice and being. Kate Mara appears to play a supporting character, but she is actually the lead, while Noah Wyle and Illeana Douglas play her subconscious "angel" and "devil" characters. You get to decide which is which. It feels a bit unfinished in the end, and it's lack of detail in some of the plotlines make it not very believable, but overall these are minor complaints. It's a fun watch. |
| User ReviewDerrick DUmmm, yeah, the only real problem with this movie is that the story just doesn't connect. Noah Wyle seems really uncomfortable and miscast, the supporting acting and dialogue is really annoying. Hmm, I guess this movie is more of a disaster than I originally thought. The only bright spot, for me anyway, was the sequence with Kate Mara singing, but then they went and fudged that all up with a cheesy montage sequence! Damn them! |
| User ReviewJames HI found the film very irritating. Just the idea of a singing environmentalist falling for a housing deleloper is turn off. Illeana Douglas' character was the most irritating part of the film. The film is simply ridiculous. |
| User ReviewKelly TSilly character relationships, a bland and unbelievable romance, no chemistry, added to a pouty, young idealist as the main character will give you a headache. If the plot doesn't get you, the bad music will. On the good side, there are some very pretty scenes of San Francisco. |
