Movie Info

After a long lonely period of involuntary celibacy, Marty Sachs decides that he has had enough of New York and wants to pack up and run the family business in Maine. Yet before he leaves, he meets two available, attractive women, both named Nina. Nina Cohen shares many of the same eccentric interests as Marty, but she has grow gun-shy from one too many bad relationships. Blonde bombshell Nina Harris literally knocks Marty off his feet in an ill-fated attempt at snagging a cab. Two Ninas was screened at the 1999 Boston Film Festival.

Film debut of writer-director Neil Turitz is a solid twentysomething romantic comedy. In covering well-trod territory, he manages a few twists...

Top Critic
Director Neil Turitz doesn't make a huge impression, either with story or dialogue... but Ron Livingston -- a budget Ben Stiller -- remains one of the best kept secrets of cinema and his participation makes him, title notwithstanding, the real star here.

Audience Reviews for Two Ninas

Dec 05, 2011

I like Ron Livingston, but this movie didn't really do him justice. For the most part, this movie was ok. For some reason, however, it was missing that little bit of "something" that makes it really good.
