Lance Valentine (David Boreanaz) makes a living as “Mr. Fix It”, a man who gets hired by men that have just recently been dumped bu their girlfriend. Lance dates the guys’ ex-girlfriend and becomes the worst date possible, sending then girl back into her ex-boyfriend’s arms. But when Lance gets hired by Bill Smith (Pat Healy) to get Sophia Fiori (Alana de la Garza) back, Lance, for the first time, starts falling for one of his marks. – from imdb


Mr. Fix It is a film that under-performed to its potential. It just did not click with me. I expected more. This film needed more work before its release.

The acting clashed with the script. The lines, action, and plot was cheesy and over the top. Boreanaz and de la Garza did not have any chemistry on film. It was just two beautiful people acting and that is what it felt and looked like.

Nothing in Mr. Fix It seemed believable. The low budget of the film hurt the film. As a viewer you become accustom to certain things in the films and when they are missing its comes blaringly across. Most of all the scenes felt artificial.

If you only familiar with Boreanaz as Angel or Booth you should check out this film, it gives another character in his resume. If you are a fan of Alana de la Garza, you will not be disappointed but she does set the on fire.

I give it 1/5 Gs.
