Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
The most disappointing aspect of Charlie Casanova isn't that its plot lacks any real trajectory, or that its narrative feels so implausibly purposeless.

CineVue
Rating: 2/5 --
This relentlessly one-note, indigestibly overwritten picture duplicates the experience of being trapped in a train carriage with a bore who's spent too much time at the drinks trolley.

Irish Times
Rating: 1/5 --
An opinionated motormouth reveals sociopathic tendencies in an Irish micro-budgeter that's the very definition of a hard slog.

It's a trip you'll be reluctant to take twice, but as a singular vision Charlie Casanova demands a second look.

Sad, shallow, boring people doing unpleasant things, Charlie Casanova is the cinematic equivalent of a night on the gin.

In this low-budget Irish tale Charlie Barnham (Emmett Scanlan) is a loathsome psychopath who regards the rest of humanity with sneering contempt.

Product Description:
A charming sociopath's life begins to unravel in this independent drama from Irish filmmaker Terry McMahon. Charlie (Emmett J. Scanlan) is a successful and well-to-do businessman who is attending a weekend-long conference with his wife, three of his best friends and their spouses. What most of them don't know is Charlie's life is a house of cards; his business is falling apart, his investments are going bust, his marriage is on its last legs, he's been having an affair with a friend's wife, and he's using credit cards to fend off his inevitable financial collapse. En route to the conference, Charlie runs over a working-class woman with his car; he decides to let the draw of a card determine if he calls the police or simply moves on, and over the rest of the weekend, he uses a deck of cards to make his choices. As chance takes the place of Charlie's stunted conscience, his actions and statements become increasingly ugly and abusive while his arrogance, his sense of privilege and his contempt for nearly everyone around him become obvious. Writer and director McMahon raised the financing for CHARLIE CASANOVA and recruited most of his cast and crew through postings on Facebook, with the filmmaker claiming it was the first feature film conceived and launched though the use of the social networking site.
