Rating: 3/4 -- A hilarious Parker Posey provides her customary blast of brittle energy in "Price Check," an engaging corporate comedy. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/5 -- It tries to say something about money, morals, selling out on dreams, etc, but all that flaccid dressing just doesn't mesh. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/4 -- The script is teeming with informed jargon about the business of supermarket pricing, and with actors like Posey as its vessel, the dialogue rings with an unlikely blend of fascination and farce. Full Review

The indie film goddess Parker Posey cuts a ferociously funny swath through Michael Walker’s PRICE CHECK...

Rating: 5.9/10 -- Writer and director Walker posits a theory that unfortunately undermines the entire film: Casting the great Parker Posey as an offbeat character does not automatically make a film a comedy. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/5 -- A you-are-there slip-and-slide that follows a supermarket chain's pricing department exec whose life gets upended by a whirlwind new boss. Full Review

Rating: C -- You can usually count on Parker Posey. That said, it's a real shame to watch her admirable talents dry up in the easily forgettable Price Check. Full Review

Product Description:

A family man working for a sinking supermarket chain enters into an affair with his sexy and spirited new boss, whose efforts to turn him into a high-powered executive mean less time spent with his wife and son in this comedy from writer/director Michael Walker (CHASING SLEEP). Pete (Eric Mabius) used to work in the music industry. But after that career fell through, he somehow wound up in the pricing department of a grocery-store chain that's about to go under. Much to Pete's surprise, things start to look up when he gets a new boss named Susan (Parker Posey) whose infectious enthusiasm and unorthodox approach give the struggling business a much-needed boost. Meanwhile, Susan sees great potential in Pete, and begins focusing her energy on transforming him into a key player for the company. The more time Susan and Pete spend together, however, the further the once-happy husband and father drifts away from his wife and son.
