Black possesses an impressive visual instinct, enhanced by Doug Chamberlain's cinematography, which distinguishes the film from other modestly budgeted indies.

There's so little to it that it's kind of a miracle anything actually stuck onto the film emulsion. Yet unfold along it does for 93 unimaginative minutes.

It's called Moving McAllister, but a better title would be Ripping Off Reiner.

You'd have to be awfully new to moviegoing to be surprised by any of the plot points in Moving McAllister

Though Moving McAllister's heart and soul are in the right place, it's a terrible excuse for a movie.

It's about time to say that Heder's 15 minutes of fame have run out. He's simply regurgitating the same one-note, doofus shtick he's been milking since Napoleon Dynamite, and it's gotten tiresome.

If you don't know where this movie is going within the first 10 minutes, I have a moving van to sell you, cheap.

Lacking so much as one interesting creative flourish, Moving McAllister may inspire your inner-development exec to scream out script notes in the hope that somehow, maybe, the characters will hear you and give them a try.

Bad really is too delicate a word to describe the film.
