What's in a name? In this documentary, director Jim Killeen discovers that a number of people in the world share his name. Using the internet search engine Google, Killeen tracks down six men also named Jim Killeen, from a priest in Ireland to a swinger in Colorado.

The concept is fun, and the whole film feels like we're all Googling Jim Killeen and pulling these video clips onto our screens. It's a nifty bit of filmmaking.

...too much of the film is filled with material better served for the behind-the-scenes section on the electronic press kit.

The shortfall in Google Me is the inordinate amountof time the LA-based Jim spends on his own life's story.

Never really comes to any surprising connections. But the film is a pleasant way to meet seven people whose names all happen to be Jim Killeen.
