A street performer (Tom Sturridge) has no ambition other than reconnecting with his best friend (Rachel Bilson) from childhood and pursuing a romance with her.

Maybe it's this soapy saga's cocktail of the worst of both the Lifetime network and self-consciously quirky indie cinema, but the strong supporting cast (including Jenkins and Blythe Danner) looks downright queasy in every frame.

"Waiting for Forever" evidently is an attempt to portray love as purest when expressed by those who are most innocent, untainted by the ugliness of the real world. But it misses the mark completely, coming off instead as creepy.

A drippy romance that makes Nicholas Sparks look like Leo Tolstoy.

It's not a love story. It's a stalker story.

A suggestion to screenwriters: Stop telling stalkers that their passion isn't misplaced and that the girl will come around in the end. It is, and she won't.

Possibly the worst movie ever made. Consider yourself drowned in treacle while bound with the strings of the interminable guitar score in this impossibly mawkish tale of I don't know what exactly but the winsome charm of its modern day Peter Pan/Street Juggler hero wear off after about 3 minutes. His forever man-child antics including a nighttime visit to the old playground (remember the swings? Remember the jungle gym? Remember the merry go round?). After a while you, and the heroine, really start to think man-child is in fact a full blown voices hearing psychotic but no, turns out we're the crazy ones.

This movie is absolutely awful. The acting is horrid, save for Bilsons parents. The story is dumb. Nothing good about this steaming pile of trash, stay far away
