Reviews for On_Line
...a savvy, shrewd commentary on the listless self-absorption of modern computer cocooners.
06/27/03
With a fearlessness for being honest, the situations the characters find themselves in are embarrassing and laugh-out-loud funny.
03/28/04
It does a good job of portraying the day-to-day life of these online obsessives, but we realize eventually that they are more interesting because they are online.

Top CriticIf you like scenes of characters sticking hands down their pants, this is the film for you.
07/10/03
At its heart, On_Line is just an old-fashioned movie about people, relationships and making connections in an isolated world. And in this sense, the movie is very successful.
07/01/03
Structurally innovative, if not terribly insightful, look at sex in the digital age.
06/27/03
A triumph of formula over substance.
06/27/03
Watching On_Line is a dispiriting experience that leaves you with a nagging 'Is that all there is?' feeling about sex in general.
06/27/03
Top CriticA pleasant, small comedy that will have you smiling.
07/03/03
If On_Line fails as a narrative, at least it can purport to be the first movie showing foreplay-to-climax sex chat masturbation sequences.
06/26/03
It's really just about a bunch of pathetic losers whiling away the hours with their hands jammed down their pants.
06/26/03
What lingers here is great sadness for a lost Atari generation.
06/26/03
The movie epitomizes the problems inherent in attempting to depict new (and constantly morphing) media -- the inevitable obsolescence, the intangible particularities that resist or get lost in translation.
06/24/03
While On Line pretends to be about cyber sex ... it's really about sitcom situations and cyber-schmaltz.
06/27/03
Although far-fetched at times, On Line gives us likable enough characters and several laugh out loud moments. Director Jed Weintrob has a distinct visual flair.
05/08/04
The raw sexuality sometimes clangs loudly against the glib comedy, but by the end On_Line makes you love it.
12/08/02
The youthful cast is lively enough to make the enterprise almost work, presenting a time capsule of cyber- communication that should be more interesting 20 years from now.
09/11/03
Amateurish drivel, which is headed for Skinemax in a hurry.
10/03/03
It makes you wonder, is there is a market for soft-porn movies for lonely geeks? Isn't that what computers are for in the first place?
