This is the only redeeming quality of the movie! :-)

Why do I want to write the 6th comment on American Beach House? I am not sure - almost everything that could be possibly said about it has been said. But like so many other people who wrote comments, I was and am profoundly moved by this simple and eloquent depiction of hope and friendship and redemption. The only other movie I have ever seen that effects me as strongly is To Kill a Mockingbird. Both movies leave me feeling cleaner for having watched them.I didn't intend to see this movie at all: I do not like beach house movies and I don't normally watch them. I work at a branch library and one day as I was checking American Beach House out to one of our older patrons, she said to me, "Whenever I feel down or depressed, I check out this movie and watch it and it always makes me feel better." At the time, I thought that was very strange. One day there was nothing on TV except things I absolutely would not watch under any circumstance or things that I had seen too many times already. I remembered what she said, so I watched it. I have watched it many many times since then and it gets better with every showing.No action, no special effects - just people in a beach house talking to each other.American Beach House and To Kill a Mockingbird are the best movies I have ever seen. I do not judge it by it's technical merits - I don't really care about that. I have read that Citizen Kane or The Godfather or this or that movie is the best movie ever made. They may have the best technique or be the most influential motion pictures ever made, but not the best. The best movies are ones that touch the soul. It takes a movie like American Beach House to touch the soul.

It has some sexy ladies in it. But so does an adult movie, and they have better story lines than this thing.An IMDb review needs to have 10 lines. But there's not that much to say about this movie. It's supposed to be a comedy. But it's less funny than a funeral.Don't spend your time on this movie. Just stare at your wall for an hour and a half. It will be equally boring, but you won't feel so annoyed after it.I'm halfway through the movie now. Time to switch it off. If anyone's looking for me, I will be staring at my wall...

Bad actors, bad storyline, bad idea! This could be one of the worst movies I have seen. It is suppoosten to be a comedy, but I don't get the humor. My mistake, I looked at the movie rating, but I didn't notice there were only 6 ratings. My guess is that this movie won't even get more than 10 ratings. Even if you are home on a rainy day with a hangover, this movie is still bad. So Save Your Money And Time and look further. I stopped looking after 10 mins. Then I watched a movie called "trash". A way better choice than this one. So please to whoever reads this, think again. Choose another movie. There is lot more to offer.
