Coffee Town Trailers

Will is a 30-something website manager who uses local café, Coffee Town, as his office. When the owners of the shop discuss plans to convert Coffee Town into a bar, Will enlists the help of his two best friends Chad and Gino to save his freeloading existence. In order to thwart the plans of Coffee Town's owners, the trio stages a robbery to create the illusion of an unsafe neighborhood not suitable for the proposed venue. Also standing in their way is Sam, a disgruntled barista with delusions of grandeur and Will's heartache over unrequited love for Becca.

At first I thought it was rather amusing but that lasted for about five minutes and then it was like ho-hum. It seems that the writers really didn't know what they were doing when they wrote this screenplay and the actors are just simply "phoning it in." Even Groban's acting like he's a bad musician is such an epic fail. I get it, he likes to play characters that are the opposite of him but this whole, "Hey, I'm supposed to be this nice guy but I like playing the d-bag" routine is getting OLD. Also, joking about the ex-roommate who died of AIDS? THAT'S NOT COOL! I like sarcasm and I can watch things that have insulting humor with no problem but you know what? I also know when to draw the line. If you're going to watch this movie, make sure you're high or drunk first because it's obvious that's who they were trying to attract...STONERS.

There must be two Coffee Towns because the one I'm watching certainly doesn't tally with the reviews describing this as hilarious. Maybe you have to be one of the people who squats in one of these places to see the sub-text containing the secret hilarity but half an hour in and there's no sign of it.Forty-five minutes. Nope, still dull.One hour, losing the will to live.One hour, fifteen minutes and I'm wishing I had some drying paint to watch instead. Nah, I give up. Can't even bear to stick with it until the end. I'm out.Continuity errors are irritating too.

you'll like this movie. Witty, funny comedy from a group of fairly unknown actors, whose future looks pretty bright (will Adrianne Palicki become the new Jennifer Aniston?). You get an Arrested Development feel from the comedy, probably because the film's writer was one of the writers for Arrested Development and My Name is Earl, so the humor is similar. The jokes are risky but not raunchy,the characters are interesting, though slightly predictable.The movie comes off as fun, not preachy or burdened with moral judgment or life lessons. There's a funny cameo from Matt Walsh who seems to be everywhere these days, So if your looking for pure comedy this is your movie, sit back and enjoy.

I'm not usually a comedy person, but I really enjoyed Coffee Town! Great, absolutely hilarious cast and great ending- this is honestly one of the best movies I've seen in a while. Josh Groban and Ben Shwartz's characters got me laughing so much, and Glenn Howerton's character just adds a genuine spark of life. The storyline is original and very well written. It's not another one of those trashy humored, meaningless comedies like those that we're so used to these days, and I would recommend this movie to everyone in general, not only comedy lovers. Trust me- it's way better than it seems in the trailer. It's definitely a good movie to see with friends and I really hope they make another one sometime! After you see Coffee Town you can judge for yourselves, but I'm going to recommend this movie to all of my buddies.
