4.0 out of 5 stars What Canadian Filmmakers do best, Dec 11 2004
By 
This review is from: Delicate Art of Parking, the (DVD)
This no-budget gem relies on what director/writers rely on when they've got no money: wit, originality, and intelligence.

The film, actually a comedic mystery/drama, uses the mock-documentary format as its framework. Characters are introduced and created with a few quick, deft strokes, with wonderful performances by all (especially a cadre of misfit parking enforcement officers). You really come to care about this odd, self-important little group of oddballs. Eventually they emerge as more interesting, complex and principled than the condescending "film-maker" who initially sets out to mock them in his documentary, but gets drawn into investigating what may or may not turn out to be a peculiar conspiracy involving a mysterious parking-enforcement guru.

Great fun, very deftly done, and a triumph of imagination and wit over big budgets.

3.0 out of 5 stars 'mockumentary' on parking enforcers (2.5/5), Sep 8 2007

This review is from: Delicate Art of Parking, the (DVD)
here we have a 'mockumentary'(fake documentary)on the people who
enforce the parking laws.you know who i mean.you leave your car,and
come back to it,only to find that nice little piece of paper on it.you
know the one that says you have to pay a fine because you parked 30
seconds too long at the metre,or you parked half an inch too far from
the curb.well the movie is about the people who put those nice pieces
of paper on the windshield,one person in particular.and let's just say
this person takes their job very seriously.this movie should be
funny,but it isn't.it is mildly amusing(and i do mean mildly)at
best.there is nothing profound in this movie,that i can see.i wouldn't
recommend renting it,but if you see it on TV,and you have nothing else
to do,it will serve as a diversion for around 90 minutes.it is less
than 90 minutes,and it does go by quickly,so that is a plus.others may
find some this movie hysterical and even deep but for me,it is average
entertainment at best.'my vote for The Delicate art of Parking: 2.5/5
