The writer/ director does, however, have tendency to over-explain.
Rather than mug for the camera Briana Evigan and Tom Malloy opt for puzzled inquisitiveness and weary resignation as yet another date does not work out, or strange event occurs including a cameo by wrestling superstar Kurt Angle. The artificial atmosphere does not accord with the laid-back naturalistic performances.

The town is so cosmopolitan drive-in movie theatres show German art films rather than cheap and cheerful horror movies. Despite being late December, the weather is so temperate it is possible to walk around without coats and to hold celebrations out of doors.
#MOVIEJACK 7 KEYGEN SERIES#
Jack and Jill stumble through a series of disastrous dates but seem bemused rather than despairing as if storing up the misadventure to turn it into an anecdote later.Īppropriate for the fairy tale names of the characters, Malloy creates a larger-than life almost fantasy atmosphere. Director Tom Malloy maintains this low-key gracious approach throughout the movie. The competitors, while talented, are good losers. The opening dance sequence is in the spirit of Strictly Come Dancing rather than Saturday Night Fever. As that is only five days away fate had better get a move on. In the first of what becomes a pattern, events conspire to prevent Jack and Jill from making a connection at the dance but later they separately encounter a fortune-teller who predicts by midnight on New Year’s Eve they each will find the love of their life. He attracts the attention of Jill (Briana Evigan) who is in the company of a romcom staple – a gay best friend serving to deter unwanted suitors.

It is a setup of course, although currently employed in IT Jack is a former professional dance teacher and puts on an impressive show.
One assumes writer/director/star Tom Malloy was going for the latter with Ask Me To Dance.ĭuring a competitive dance-off the MC teases the competitors declaring she can dance rings around them with the least likely partner in the room-dragging the awkward-looking Jack (writer/ director Malloy) onto the floor. If the main characters in a film are called Jack and Jill it could indicate either a marked lack of imagination or an effort to attract potential viewers by suggesting the movie is a cute undemanding romcom.
