Midweek Movie Reviews... Christian Kane


At this exact moment, I am less than 48 tiny little hours away from an event I’ve looked forward to for weeks… the Christian Kane concert!!!! This will be my fourth attempt to see Christian and I couldn’t be more excited. I am holding my breath and crossing my fingers and toes that the fourth time will be the charm. So, in a concerted effort to channel all of the Kaniac karma that I’ve been stockpiling, I feel compelled and privileged to review a few Kane movies this week.


Keep Your Distance: In this edgy film, Christian plays Sean Voight, a trust fund baby trying to make it as a singer and not used to hearing no. As Sean’s ex-girlfriend, Melody, develops a friendship with David (played by Gil Bellows- remember him in Allie McBeal?), Sean’s jealous side comes out and he concocts a devious plan to win her back. This movie is a little complicated and a little risque but worth watching. And, for the record, if Christian Kane was standing on my porch in the pouring rain, I would probably ogle for a while before I opened the door and let him in J


Her Minor Thing: Jeana has a secret, a secret that Tom (Michael Weatherly of NCIS fame), her cocky news reporter boyfriend, spills all over the small screen during a newscast. You can imagine that Tom quickly becomes the ex-boyfriend. As Jeana tries to get revenge and Tom tries to get her back, Paul (Christian Kane), Tom’s cameraman and new-to-town good guy who befriends Jeana without realizing she’s Tom’s girlfriend, is stuck in the middle.

Her Minor Thing is a pretty standard love triangle movie but worth watching, even if you only watch the scene in the fitness center.


Just Married: In this comedy, Christian plays Peter Prentiss, a rich has-it-all-together guy who goes to Europe to break up his ex-girlfriend Sarah’s (played by Brittany Murphy) recent marriage to never-quite-gets-it-right Tom (Ashton Kutcher). This movie will have you laughing the entire way through!

And finally (although this short doesn’t begin to cover the list of Christian’s movies)


Not Since You: Amy and Sam dated through high school and beyond but then he left to backpack Europe and feeling abandoned, she married Ryan (Christian Kane) while he was gone. When Sam shows up to a wedding of a mutual high school friend, Amy (Kathleen Robertson, you might remember her as Claire from Beverly Hills 90210) is torn between her past and her future.

Not Since You is a sweet movie with a few twists you probably won’t see coming. And, be warned, you’ll probably need a tissue or two.

That’s just a sneak peak of all you’re missing if you don’t have Christian Kane in your Netflix queue. And, rest assured, there will be a blog of the concert this weekend at some point because if you couldn’t tell, I’m proud to be a Kaniac.
