We Love You, Sally Carmichael is hilarious, outrageous, heartfelt. The first half is funny in an uncomfortable kind of way, and the last half more than delivers. I couldn't stop laughing. I nearly fell out of my chair during the final interview he gives. More fun than you should be able to have in an hour and a half. It's got everything, nerdy failed author who becomes best selling pseudonymous sell-out and hates it, smarmy publishers, one considerably crazy actor, and a bunch of normal people who actually like Simon. Watch carefully and you'll see that despite Simon's hatred and disgust at his alter ego, ordinary people's lives have been altered for the better by what he considers total schlock. My only question is how did Christopher Gorham go from nerdy Jake Foley in Jake 2.0 to badass blind hunk Augie Anderson in Covert Affairs and back to nerdy Simon Heath/Sally Carmichael in a few short years. That's some special acting. Find this movie! Watch this movie! BTW I should also call out for approval director Christopher Gorham's very effective use of texting. He doesn't try to display a screenshot of the phone. It's always too hard to read those. Instead he just overlays the relevant text responses in a cartoon-like bubble. Best way of handling this type of thing that I've seen.

I recently went to see this movie. I can honestly say that I have never laughed harder watching a movie. It was hilarious, well-acted, and extremely quotable. The lead actors were all excellent and the supporting actors were hysterical. If you have the chance, go see this movie.

This film tells the story of a man who appears to be a budding author, but in fact he has several best selling novels under a pseudonym. It is refreshing to watch a romantic comedy with authors in it. The film is fun and light hearted. The inclusion of children and teens in the film make it different from other romantic comedies, giving it a fresh spin. I enjoyed it a lot.

Not much to see here but a good-natured time waster (whose 83 minutes or so means you don't waste much time). Christopher Gorham plays the writer of a wildly popular set of novels about a Merman (a la Twilight) that he's embarrassed to have written (under the pseudonym "Sally Carmichael.") However, his publishers won't let him out of contract given the upcoming movie version of his books. Through a series of circumstances (involving a pretty bookshop owner), Gorham write an article criticizing his own books that goes viral. It's all resolved neatly (as these kinds of movies are) but Gorham does a good job as the anxiety-ridden author who gets outed as the author and has to make peace with popularity of his books. A stronger script could have explored these themes a bit more effectively and I would have jettisoned the character of the overenthusiastic actor who ends up revealing Gorham's identity. The movie kind of slows way down whenever he's on the screen. Wait through credits though for a scene from the movie version of the Merman books. It's brief but a real hoot!

My wife and I were looking for a pleasant, happy movie after dinner on Amazon streaming. This one caught our attention. It is NOT a Hallmark movie but pretty much follows the Hallmark approach. Two single strangers meet by coincidence, they hit it off pretty quickly, seem ideal for each other. Then a big wedge crops up, it looks like it will spoil the relationship, until they figure out how to repair it. He is a writer, he has had some success under his own name, but his biggest success has come from using the pen name Sally Carmichael. Under that moniker he writes romance books about a merman. He hates the books, he hates being associated with them, but no one other than his publisher knows the truth. She is the owner of a bookstore, plus a small local newspaper hardly anyone reads. She asks him to write an article, that is how they meet. They hit it off immediately. Then something happens, he is exposed, and that becomes the rest of the story. It is pleasant entertainment with attractive actors playing pleasant characters. We enjoyed it, good entertainment.

A delightfully simple, but elegant comedy where a struggling writer and his wildly successful pen name are pitted against each other (or himself). The comedy is spot on and appropriate for all ages, with the plot and acting quite stellar on all counts. This movie is not only believable, but the take home message will resonate with audiences from all walks of life.

I LOVED this movie! I took my sisters, my daughter, my 81 year-old mother, my girlfriends and my 10 year-old granddaughter -- what movie can you do that?!? The story line was adorable; the jokes were clean and fun (and I wasn't embarrassed to have my mom & granddaughter there!); and we all laughed til our sides hurt! GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!! It will be 2 hours well spent!

Funny, surprisingly fresh and charming movie about a writer, his alias and his phobias. Christopher Gorham is so talented as the star and director of this film. I took my two children (ages 9 and 11) with me to see it, and while it is not a children's movie, we all loved it. Do yourself a favor and enjoy this one.

It's not that the movie (pace) is very slow at start. It's a little slow, but, that's kind of the point, our protagonist, by choice, lives a slow life. What's really slow is getting to some laughs. There's some intent there, but, it's not well executed. But, once all the characters are established, including the cute love interest and crazy famous actor, things start to warm up. There are some good laughs. Sure, the best ones seem to be making fun of the "celebrity culture", but, those are not all of them. Another big problem is that there is an obvious wasted opportunity to make more fun of Twilight and similar "young-adult sagas". There's some critique, but, it actually feels more like the movie is "tagging along" rather than exposing Twilight and its ilk for what they are - empty shell(s). Just saying that is no enough - after all, it should be obvious. Acting is OK, but not great. Betsie Tullough does a good job, but, she doesn't "sell" her growing affection for the protagonist well. It starts good, but, later we don't really see any progress and when she feels betrayed (because he didn't tell her that he's the actual author of the "Siren" saga), it doesn't seem to bother her as much as it should. Protagonist, Gorham, "does his thing", portraying this bad-adjusted talented writer with all his quirks, but, somehow, fails in the same area as his partner, also not showing his growing affection for Betsie Tullough, nor the devastation when she dumps him - and he should be devastated, she's the only woman willing to spend time with him and it looked like she loved him. So, both are OK, but, miss a very important element. Unlike them, the crazy actor is well portrayed by Sebastian Roche. A little over the top, but, it's a comedy, to be expected. So, it's a movie with several flaws, but, in general, its heart is in the right place and it does deliver good laughs eventually. Thus, you get what you can expect from a comedy.

I was in this wonderful movie as an extra. Meeting Christopher Gorham and Sebastian Roche was a dream come true and just to be at the premiere and see the complete movie was an even bigger dream. This movie is a cute, romantic, funny, emotional roller coaster and oh do i love roller coasters!!! #WeLoveYouSallyCarmichaelSuccess - i'd give this movie a 100/10 if i could! You must watch it!
