“Phony” (*1/2 out of four) was an aptly titled timewaster about a struggling indie filmmaker (David Bush) who is fed up with being unlucky in love and teams up with one of his moron friends (Jeff Pearson) to make an exploitative film about the perils of online dating. A vanity production for writer/director/star/co-producer Bush who seems to have studied the worst imitations of Woody Allen. It’s no wonder these unlikeable idiots are unlucky and women want nothing to do with them. Tacked-on happy ending seems especially false and (yes) phony.
