So Lucy won't stop reminding Joe of their pact to jump off a bridge if they haven't found... Joe and Lucy are best friends and roommates in a small Manhattan apartment...and she's about to turn 30. So Lucy won't stop reminding Joe of their pact to jump off a bridge if they haven't found true love by the time she hits the big three-oh. Joe reluctantly agrees to honor the agreement. But first Joe tries to head off disaster by helping their romantic lives take off. He begins by anonymously inviting his beautiful neighbor (whom he's been ogling for years) to his first gallery opening. Then he makes sure this big event also offers possibilities for Lucy--who wins the interest of celebrated conceptual artist Bwick Elias. Will Joe and Lucy find love in the world of art? Or will the two roommates discover that when it comes to romance, there really is no place like home? [More]

If Lucy Fell is funnier more often than not, and when it's not being funny it's at least being strange. I'll take strange over what most major-distributor comedies are when they're not being funny.

If you're looking for a limp and humorless comedy, look ye no further.

There is an affectation that I find particularly annoying, and that is when people choose to perform at a level below their natural intelligence.

Sadly, the story is nowhere as original as the details and performances.
