When the Starlight Ends

Besides a horrible script, Sam didn't have a chance with an American accent. Instead of acting you can literally see him thinking about the words he must pronounce. Not to mention the bad edits and fake green screen demise. Oh well. At least David Arquette wasn't bad. As far as the other actors they were all pretty bad but Sam and the agent took the cake on the overacting curse. Oy.

Sam Heughan did a great job as this character. The criticism that his American accent needs work is unwarranted. People come to America from everywhere in the world - the faint trace of an accent from another place suits the author character perfectly. It was a refreshingly offbeat movie. Just a bit difficult to sort out the story, which is a shame because that caused the movie to just miss being an excellent one. Still, it is entertaining and interesting and certainly good enough to watch more than once. Enjoy.

I couldn't even finish it. Sam is such a good actor, but this was hard to watch.

Oh, what a pity... This could've been a really good film, actually. I thought it had some intereting ingredients: an intriguing story about love and loss, coping with the consequences of the choices we make, the price people pay to follow their calling or achieve success, handling regret, all charmingly sprinkled with a touch of existential pondering. Also, a great match for the lead role and good supporting role actors.

I don't know what else was wrong about making this film besides apparently very little funding. Poor directing, editing, camera work? A dire need for more close-ups? Different camera lenses? A little bit of everything?

Also, it was disappointing to see the lead actors' potential squandered in a chaotic feature, on roles that could've been much better.

Needless to say that the final product turned out pretty mangled and felt a bit dull. Too bad...

Sam was the only good thing about this movie and it wasn't even because of his acting. Honestly, as good of actor as he is he was NOT in this film. It was awkward and weird and not in a good way.

Sam himself says he's horrible at accents... yeah his slipped a bit quite often throughout the movie.
