"The most refreshingly honest rom-com you'll see this year."
- Erik Davis, Movies.com
"A fantastic piece that captures an unbelievable array
of relationship dynamics among urban singles"
- Tom Rogers, CEO TiVo
"A surprising delight from start to finish, this is one rom-com with serious, and very funny, nerve.
- David Noh, Film Journal International
"Never has a film been so utterly joyous to watch, and so nerve wracking to discuss."
- Steve Buja, Same Night Movie Review
"I haven't seen a movie this funny and 'real' since The Breakup, and I would say that The Pill blew that away."
-Nat Berman, UnrealityMag.com
"The Pill is the model of independent efficiency. There are no wasted parts. It's the kind of film that should be on the IFC Spirit Award short list..."
- Jonathan W. Hickman, Daily Film Fix
"Deftly avoiding both the haphazardness of mumblecore and the fakery of studio romantic comedies, Khoury deploys a light directorial touch marked by assured thesping and a genuine appreciation for neurotic angst."
- Ronnie Scheib, Variety
SYNOPSIS
It happens. You meet someone at the bar, one thing leads to another, and the next thing you know you're waking up wondering (and potentially regretting) exactly what took place the night before. Such is the case for Fred, who starts to panic when his free-spirited one night stand, Mindy, informs him that she's not on birth control; but for some reason isn't too concerned. Fred, determined not to become a father, is forced into an all-day adventure with Mindy that is filled with awkward social situations and untimely roadblocks as he struggles to preserve his New York City world. With a resolution finally in sight, the no-boundaries Mindy starts to grow on the overly anxious Fred, forcing him to make a decision that will change the rest of his life. | |||
