9/10
Rates up there with "Best in Show"
15 June 2006
When I was invited to a rough cut screening of "Closing Escrow," I had no idea how much I was going to enjoy watching real estate agents make fools of themselves. As a veteran real estate agent for almost 20 years, I thought I had seen it all. However, Armen Kaprelian's movie, "Closing Escrow," had me laughing at the absurdities of my business. Much of the dialogue was improvised and two actors deserve mention here. Wendy McLendon-Covey from "Reno 911" did a stand out job of playing the uptight, politically correct agent, Hillary, who is working with an African American couple. Also, Bruce Thomas whom my daughters adored in "Legally Blonde" was relatable in his role of working with neighbors who couldn't make up their minds about what they wanted in a house. "Closing Escrow" is sure to have audiences laughing out loud at the practices of some unconventional Realtors. I found it comparable to other "mockumentaries" like "Best in Show" and "A Mighty Wind."
