A Girl Walks into a Bar

While not quite as compelling as his recently produced "Hotel Noir", the Girl Walks Into A Bar is a modern Noir style send-up with more delightful performances from filmmaker Gutierrez' outstanding ensemble cast. Filmed against the night time underworld of the Los Angeles bar scene, even Raymond Chandler couldn't have done any better with all of the twists and turns of a not so serious crime type drama, involving undercover cops, purse snatchers and heist artists, and the in-crowd out for a good time.Don't miss the always compelling performances of Carla Gugino, Danny Devito, and Rosario Dawson, who can always be depended on to deliver a delightful character study romp in a Gutierrez directed film. As always, the work of filmmaker Sebastian Gutierrez is more focused on atmosphere and character study than it is plot, with the action seeming to take place in a noir never never land where almost unbelievable characters haunt Chandler's gritty dark side of Los Angeles. But the unbelievably good ensemble cast pull it off with a style and flair consistent in all of their collaborations. A great bonus for Danny Devito fans is thatwhenever he creates ones of his characters it just lights-up the screen. If you like this film try to get your hands on a copy of thehard to find "Hotel Noir" with much of the same cast of characters. It's one of the greatest modern noir style outings of all time.

Ok movie

had to wait til the end for monica

If you are a Aaron Tveit fan you will definitely enjoy this movie. There are many notable stars and familiar faces in this movie. Better than I thought it would be.

It has potential and has some good actors as well. Lacked some directing and some creativity. It was there but not quite what I expected. Hard to explain...

Girl walks into a bar kicks off with an intriguing conversation and seemingly take you on a wild ride. It was filled with humor, fast talking and great interaction between the characters! My only gripe it ends abruptly but the end scene goes through the credits, so it's only a small gripe.
