'The Argument' is the 3rd feature film from Director, Robert Schwartzman. The film is comedy of errors that allows for a lot of humor from just about everyone in the film which just happens to have an impressive cast. Lets start with Dan Fogler and Emma Bell who play Jack and Lisa. The two play off each other brilliantly. But even though they are considered the stars of the film they certainly have a lot of company including Maggie Q, Danny Pudi, Tyler James Williams and Cleopatra Coleman to name a few of the amazing supporting cast. While the argument itself seems a bit silly the film also addresses race, commitment and trust as well.
And at the heart of it all the film is a comedy with loads of laughs and interesting and zany characters. 'The Argument' is a unique, funny and totally bonkers comedy with a terrific ensemble cast so be sure to check it out when it opens theaters and on demand from September 4th.
