Cupidity (1999) User Reviews

Very funny, very entertaining. (Vague spoilers)

[DrGoot · 8/10 · 20 April 2002]

A guy sees a newspaper ad and goes to interview to become Cupid. Gets more than he expected.

The way the story progresses managed to suspend my disbelief just as it suspends the job applicant's, enough that I didn't see the ending coming too far in advance.

All in all, one big chuckle. One big joke with a beautiful setup.

old myth's price

[Kirpianuscus · 2 November 2022]

In many senses, a film about long term ingenuity. Or naivety. Or greed. Or need of a job, ignoring that it is too good to have real chances to be real. . An ordinary guy, an announce in newspaper, a sort of interview not very conventional and , after the terms of tasks are clear, a test. A very easy one.

The axis of seduction - the acting, the contrast between David Lipman and . Two actors in a bar and their talk mixing scepticism of one of them and the honey promises of the venerable Cupid.

A simple talk and a Cupid very far by the classic image proposed by art or school or books of mythology.

The end can seems shocking. But after short time it is obvious - it is only realistic one. Matt Servitto and, sure, the presence of Raymond serra being the good ingredient of this dark comedy.
