Waiting Collection

Waiting... is a 2005 American independent comedy-drama film written and directed by Rob McKittrick (in his directorial debut) and starring Ryan Reynolds, Anna Faris, and Justin Long. McKittrick wrote the screenplay while working as a waiter. The film is about employees at a Bennigan's-like restaurant (called, creatively enough, Shenaniganz), killing time before their real lives get started. But while they wait, they'll have to deal with picky customers who want their steak cooked to order and enthusiastic managers who want to build the perfect wait staff. Luckily, these employees have effective revenge tactics. A sequel entitled Still Waiting... was released on February 17, 2009. The second film is about another Shenaniganz location dealing with new competition from a Hooters-like sports bar called TaTa's Wing Shack run by Calvin from the first movie.

What people are saying

  • Gimly
    โ˜… 3/10

    All of the long-lasting charm (and the actual humour) of the first film fall by the wayside in this direct-to-video sequel. Final rating:โ˜…ยฝ: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible.
