You won't be disappointed!

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

RELEASED IN 2006 and written & directed by Brad Silberling, "10 Items or Less" is a drama about an aged has-been actor (Morgan Freeman) who researches for an indie gig after a four-year dry spell. He meets a spitfire checkout clerk named Scarlet (Paz Vega) at a supermarket in a Latino community of Los Angeles. Impressed by the young woman, he decides to help her while psyching-up for the role. The plot is obviously borrowed from 2003's "Lost in Translation." To key you off, the girl is named after Scarlett Johansson. But don't let that keep you from seeing this minor gem because the characters are very different, plus other nuances. For instance, Morgan's character (simply called "Him" in the cast list) reflects the "joy of living" (joie de vivre) as opposed to Bill Murray's amusing curmudgeon in "Lost in Translation." Moreover, "10 Items" is less melancholy; and the girl isn't naïve and overly sweet like Charlotte (Johansson) in "Lost." It's a small film, with the end credits rolling a mere ten minutes after the hour mark, and so it lacks the depth of "Lost" and isn't as moving (at least as far as pulling your romantic heartstrings), but it's more heartwarming and overall inspiring. THE MOVIE RUNS 1 hour 21 minutes and was shot in Brentwood, Los Angeles, and nearby Carson (to the south). GRADE: A-

This Movie should have ended in 10 minutes or Less , There is nothing worth your attention here , I watched it for Paz Vega and Morgan Freeman but literally there is nothing to the story , A runtime of 1 hour and 16 minutes is just a 10 minute conversation stretched , the conversation that the two characters have on 10 items or less , that pretty much about it , moving a camera behind two walking characters is not screenplay , the movie didn't had a body or conclusion , it only had an Introduction , it was just a narrative rather than immersive experience , it never draws you in , you are just left wondering what is the sole purpose of the movie and by the time it comes on track its already over , wonder why they made the movie in the first place

A kind-hearted optimistic little movie about the possibility for change, with a "strong ending" (as Morgan Freeman says) and it's a lovely one--I can't watch it without getting a lump in my throat. Well worth a view or two.I've never paid much attention to Morgan Freeman (isn't he usually in movies where things get blown up?) but this converted me to a fan. He portrays an experienced actor who seems slightly jaded about his work but is endlessly curious about people. His encounters with strangers leave them feeling happier than they were before, and his interactions with Paz Vega lead to what may be a major change in her life.Low-key, low-budget, and irresistible.

One can only hope that there are many times when someone as powerful as Morgan Freeman can take the time to assist someone who needs help.It all comes down to loving people. As Will Rogers said, "I never met a man I didn't like." Of course, if you meet Paz Vega, what's not to like? That smile of hers can melt diamonds. She is just so fantastic that I can watch anything she is in. The same goes for Freeman. he is just magic on the screen.The two of them gave us a film that was funny from start to finish. From the Mexican supermarket to Lorraine & Bobby to Packy. It was tender, charming and just plain funny.You have to check this out.
