I like all |Canadian movies. I enjoy anything with Brett Butt starring in all things Canadian. So this movie was a perfect combination of Canadian movie with Brett Butt starring in a Canadian movie. The acting of all the actors was really good. I think we have a superior talent pool in Canada. I also think that Brett Butt is very comedic. Seven more lines of text to go. If I were more acquainted with the private detective genre of the 50's, I am sure there are references to movies of this time era. The gumshoe, is the correct word I think. So he played the part perfectly. So did his friend, David Koechner. Of course the diner scene always makes me think of Corner Gas. Enjoyable light hearted fluffy entertainment. Why not?

In Canada, a woman named Kyra (Amy Smart) goes to the office of the middle-aged clumsy salesman Leo Falloon (Brent Butt) by mistake believing that he is a private detective. She hires him to help her to find her missing brother Milles Severeign and Leo is so spellbound by the blonde that he does not tell her that he is not who she is looking for. Leo decides to pose of private detective and he is involved in a complicated scheme of computer game corporations seeking high profits."No Clue" is a dark comedy with a good story that deserved a better lead actor. Brent Butt wrote a good screenplay but unfortunately he is neither funny nor pleasant on the screen. The resolution of the murder is not consistent with the character Leo that is not bright. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "Nada É o que Parece" ("Nothing Is What Looks Like")

I didn't go into this movie with high expectations and really wasn't disappointed, I'm not sure if this was supposed to be a comedy, drama or what and I only got as far as the first half hour before I found it to painful to watch anymore, the laughs the acting was so wooden it sounded like all the cast where literally reading from their scripts as they went, and the plot well I'm still trying to work that out which is a shame because I liked Brent Butt in Corner Gas which is the main reason I saw this movie and it was original....this is not. Amy Smarts role as the damsel in distress is average at best which probably has more to do with the poor screenplay than her acting ability and David Koechner is not much better as the friend/sidekick. If you like a movie that has clumsy endless old one-liners and innuendo then you might enjoy this, if not then look for something else

Brent Butt (Corner Gas) plays Leo Falloon, a bumbling middle-aged logo salesman who's so smitten by the mysterious blonde named Kyra (Amy Smart) who asks him to help find her missing brother that he neglects to tell her she's in the wrong office. That sets up a long-winded plot about corporate espionage in the computer game world with steely eyed corporate chiefs and an over sized goon. Butt is a decent word-spinner and self-deprecating funny man, but the decision to have the rest of the cast play it straight maybe is not the best decision. A few scenes of Leo Fallon exchanging banter with his buddy Ernie (David Koechner of Get Smart & Anchorman 1 and 2), prove more rewarding than the cliché murder plot that occupies most of the movie. The overall rating of the movie is good, taken you are ready for a little bit of smirking chuckles. No Clue is definitely worth watching, you should also have a look at his performance in Corner Gas which is very original.
