Mike Binder might just be on to something with “The Search for John Gissing,” a
precious commodity – an indie comedy that actually delivers the goods.
–HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
A refreshing antidote to gross out comedies … a very funny film, sometimes
uproaringly so … executed with deft comic timing and plentiful guffaws … a
throwback to the mod English comedies of the 1960s and ‘70s. –VARIETY
… Janeane Garofalo in her best role since The Truth About Cats And Dogs … this
could easily be the next big, yet totally unexpected, comic sleeper to come out
of London’s independent scene. –MAYFAIR NEWS


“The Search for John Gissing” is the funniest independent adult
comedy in years. –SIXTY SECOND PREVIEW

“Wall to wall big laughs. A perfect independent comedy. Could easily be a
sleeper hit.”

–ENTERTAINMENTSTUDIONEWS.COM
Wonderfully silly comedy … fast-paced … an irresistible combination of witty
writing … and talented comic actors. –FILM GUIDE MAGAZINE

Great! … the acting here is dead on … Binder and Garofalo have great chemistry
… check out this film, it's a great date movie. –AIN’T IT COOL NEWS


Highly Recommended! … Pick of the Litter! … Rickman steals the show in this
Brit-out-of-water comedy … plays like Sixties Neil Simon or Blake Edwards.
–THE AUSTIN
CHRONICLE




“…an unpretentious mockery of the business world that pits
Matthew Barnes (Mike Binder) against John Gissing (played spot-on by Alan
Rickman) …impressive supporting cast that includes the hilarious Janeane
Garofalo…a wild-goose-chase-turned-revenge-plot refreshing and consistently
funny.” –NICOLE COHEN – EYE TORONTO
A non-stop roller coaster ride of a comedy … Writer/Director Mike Binder stars
along with the amazing talents of actors Alan Rickman and Janeane Garofalo…

–THE HERALD TRIBUNE
… excellent cast … Binder’s briskly written screenplay and snappy pacing, The
Search for John Gissing makes for a … funny off-Hollywood farce. – FILM THREAT
MAGAZINE

Hilarious! –THE MOVIE TIMES
