I didn't think it was technically brilliant, but I just liked the flow and the humour of the situation. Bit like an American movie.

Dang, that's a lot of cliches.

Anyone see Kiss Kiss Bang Bang? The entire story seems ripped off from there. From falling in love with a girl in middle school to running into her (several years later as a nobody on the hollywood totem pole) at one of those d-list hollywood parties. In Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, the girl also reveals that she was spotted at a young age by some hollwyood producer and casted to be in a nationally televised commercial. How coincidental. Also the abrupt ending leads me to believe that the guy didn't know how else to finish this story.

Kind-of an annoying ending but whatever. A good story.

Umm..ok. What's the point again? Good story and all...but...I don't see a point.
