There's an idiosyncratic talent at work here with the potential to blossom into bigger, better and more accomplished films.

Kasdan's is a very promising debut, its own dearth of feeling offset by able writing, engaging playing and a sure sense of pace.

Try as it might, "Zero Effect" just doesn't amount to much.

This is one of those movies that creeps up on you, insidiously gathering power. By the end, I was surprised how much I was involved.
