What I liked

It was easy to fall in love with every character because of the heartfelt writing, direction and performances. It gripped you right away and didn’t let go.

What I didn't like

Can’t really critique it. Had a blast.

My overall impression

A truly entertaining piece that takes you back to the era of the video store, in this case Blockbuster. It was humorous, educational and very touching as the writer added a great personal storyline to parallel the fall of Blockbuster. I felt the range of emotions throughout the production, and there were genuine laughs from the whole audience. The writer/director/narrator did a fantastic job parsing out the story and also engaging the audience with each era of Blockbuster. You’ll find yourself smiling for the whole hour but also find yourself touched. The ensemble cast really delivered great performances with engaging, unique characters. Can’t recommend it enough. You’ll leave the show with a big smile on your face.
