"Mark of Love" ? That Sounds Naughty... ;)

Sometimes you don't realize you're in love, until you're not.

The Story:

Mark (Bryan Price) who has been moving from relationship to relationship in his life.  When his latest girlfriend tosses him out because he can't quite commit, or basically say "I love you", well it's time for our hero to start over.  Each time he starts over, he tries to find a new hobby to occupy his time.  This time, he goes to answer an ad for Karate classes, but when he arrives it turns out that some speed dating ladies have pulled some trickery in the hopes of meeting some guys.  Mark is ready to bounce, but they offer to pay him if he would be willing to offer them some advice on what it is that men are really looking for in women.

Easy money, right?

Not exactly...

It turns out, Mark relates each of his failed relationships to the ladies, but as each story unfolds, it's our plucky hero who is almost always to blame on the failure of the relationships.

Think of this as a less funny, less well done version of High Fidelity.

We're counting down Mark's failures, and each woman had her pros and cons to be with forever, and Mark and the ladies all begin to realize the same thing.  It turns out the latest was not the woman he was meant to be with.

When that realization hits, it is Mark that realizes he hasn't taught the ladies much of anything, but they've taught him quite a bit.

The problem is...

Has he waited too long to win back his one true love?

Final Grade: C

Rewatchability/Purchase Factor:  Cute, but disposable.  I'd take High Fidelity any and every time though.
