#TIFF15: “MR. RIGHT”
Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong
Director Paco Cabezas takes the incredible screenplay from Max Landis (American Ultra, Chronicle) and creates absolute magic with the incredibly quirky fun romantic action comedy Mr. Right.

#TIFF15: MR. WILL’S 2015 TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS!
We're sad and in ways glad to see TIFF '15 ending and although we love the excitement, it's nice to get back to normal again. We worked ourselves into the ground and got quite ill, but we're fighting it. We believe in transparency and admit this wasn't the most exciting Festival in memory, but we had fun and look forward to TIFF '16. With rain drowning-out a lot of the fun on the Festival's three busiest days, fans were forced to make the most out of the situation and in these times we see ...
