As sexual tensions arise, artistic crises develop, triggering comedic situations that uncork themselves at an outrageous pace. In addition to these troubles, each individual must battle a series of day-to-day problems at the same time. Liotti's film is an engaging feature that proves a solid script is far more important than a big budget any day of the week. Also features the never-before-seen "Spirit of the Stairs" by Neil Finn.

Reviews for The Waiting Game
Despite first-rate acting, these stories are pretty ordinary stuff and tell us little about the actor-waiter's ordeal that's supposed to be the heart of the film.
The kind of film that works better on the small screen than in theatres.
