12/06/05
Well-crafted late-night sleaze.
06/28/03
Top CriticA [reasonably] compelling, refreshingly non-judgmental look at the newest phase of one-handed clapping.
01/21/05
Amateurish drivel, which is headed for Skinemax in a hurry.
10/03/03
Top CriticA pleasant, small comedy that will have you smiling.
07/03/03
An engaging, dig-vid portrait of 21st century disaffection that assays, in a manner that feels emotionally correct if not perfectly arranged, the way the Internet binds us.
06/27/03
Although far-fetched at times, On Line gives us likable enough characters and several laugh out loud moments. Director Jed Weintrob has a distinct visual flair.
05/08/04
A smart, well-made film that treads new ground in the relationship wilderness.
02/12/03
It makes you wonder, is there is a market for soft-porn movies for lonely geeks? Isn't that what computers are for in the first place?
06/27/03
The movie epitomizes the problems inherent in attempting to depict new (and constantly morphing) media -- the inevitable obsolescence, the intangible particularities that resist or get lost in translation.
06/24/03
Top CriticThere's something so familiar and commonplace about this story and its characters -- and maybe that has something to do with how much the Internet is a part of our everyday lives -- it's hard to get particularly thrilled.
07/11/03
Top CriticWhat lingers here is great sadness for a lost Atari generation.
06/26/03
Doomed by Weintrob's passion for the Web, his passionless characters are little more than manipulated 'bots' -- and audiences, absenting possible hipster appeal, may vote more zeroes than ones for this digital tale.
07/01/03
The same old 'people are lonely' whining, only with new technology.
09/18/02
Writer-director Jed Weintrob is so busy trying to make important statements about human relationships in the cyber age that he loses control of his whiny, unlikable characters.
06/27/03
A triumph of formula over substance.
06/27/03
This would-be erotic thriller suffers from the same problem that afflicts so many computer-oriented movies -- namely, that watching characters staring at a screen and typing hardly makes for a thrilling cinematic experience.
06/27/03
A 90-minute hairy-palm horror show, one that will strike terror into the heart of anyone who shares a keyboard with a lonely, Web-crazed roommate.
08/15/03
Take away the computers and DSL lines and it's the 1950s of Jules Feiffer and Mike Nichols and Elaine May all over again, without the shrewdness and bite.
