The Sprockets of Desire - Modern Romance review by CH
For a film which has a film editor as its protaganist, many of the scenes - including one about edting a sci-fi episode set on a spacecraft - are prolonged. The viewer is irritable at being denied the next stage in the course of events in this West Coast romance. Suspense falls away, and wry remarks now and then cannot help bring the necessary momentum to this take on a romantic comedy.
