    Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
    CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
    Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
    Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
    nibha1281 Joey Tribianni is an awesome character from F.R.I.E.N.D.S. No doubt he got a show of his own. But the rest of the cast and story-line is quite weak. FRIENDS is one of the best comedy show of all time because all the six characters in that show were very strong, extremely humorous and they connected with us all the way.Joey seems incomplete without Chandler. Their chemistry made FRIENDS great. We don't get to see any such chemistry in this show.But anyways, if you are a fan of Joey Tribianni. Go watch this show. It has some of its memorable moments. And you might get to relive some memories from FRIENDS. I really missed Joey Tribianni after FRIENDS, so this show was a treat for me. I hope you will enjoy it as well!
    Gabriel Trofin Their chemistry is what made the show so great, but having just Joey in a show is a bit of a problem since, well, to be honest...he's stupid. I.e. he is so stupid that it's hard for us to imagine him succeeding at anything.The problem with this is that in "Joey" they change his character very much. He's smarter, a bit different. Still dumb, but not as dumb. And I just felt like I was watching an entirely new person. It wasn't Joey. It was Matt LeBlanc saying funny things every now and then.To be fair the show is watchable and entertaining. It has some good jokes. But it's a bit too obvious. The lines are too explosive and, yes, unrealistic. Every line of dialogue has a witty comeback remark, or is a setup for a joke.Like when Joey says he's too old to go to bars any more. "Plus, I have a problem telling if they're gay bars or not. By the way, if Ramone calls, I am not here!" It's too sudden, too obvious. Instead of feeling as if Joey's just stupid and innocent (as he was in "Friends"), I felt as if here he was really stretching to be obvious and make people laugh, which is actually a pretty big problem.Overall, a good show, but you can tell just by the opening credits that it's in a whole other world apart from "Friends."
    Harriet Deltubbo After his friends all go their separate ways, Joey leaves New York for Hollywood to pursue his acting career full time. His sister Gina buys him a nice apartment, and he finds a new roommate in his nephew Michael. Sorry, but almost every joke in this series is absolutely pointless. The only thing that keeps it afloat is the sensitivity of the bilaterally desperately needy relationship between the main characters. I suggest you enjoy the first five or so episodes for what they are and let your mind play around with the opportunities there can be to make something interesting. The real centerpiece of the series is its acting; two performances in particular stick out.
    kyle-loves-brooke Joey is a wonderfully entertaining sit com featuring everybody's favorite Friends character, Joey Tribbiani. The show centers around Joey's big move from New York City to Los Angeles in order to further his acting career. On the way he reunites with his surprisingly similar sister, Gina. Her brilliant adult son, Michael as well as his stereotypically white neighbor, Alex and his quirky, outrageous agent, Bobbie. While the show may be considerably different from Friends it makes up for it with it's considerable entertainment value. And while Matt Le Blanc may have been Friend's consistent comic relief, the gears have changed, giving characters like Gina and Bobbie the spotlight in that category while Joey becomes more of an adviser to the characters (not that Joey doesn't need advice himself every now and again). While the ensemble cast is extraordinary, it is the female cast members that truly make the show special. Cast members like Drea De Matteo (Gina), Andrea Anders (Alex) and Jennifer Coolidge (Bobbie) that use their unique comedic styles to keep audience members laughing from beginning to end. In conclusion, Joey is an endearing comedy, enjoyable for all viewers.
