Synopsis: There's always something strange brewing at the Black Cat Café. A neurotic young commitment-phobe runs into his ex-girlfriend while he's whacked out on killer dope; a high strung control freak... There's always something strange brewing at the Black Cat Café. A neurotic young commitment-phobe runs into his ex-girlfriend while he's whacked out on killer dope; a high strung control freak finds out that her husband-to-be is a transvestite; a hyper-possessive boyfriend discovers that his girlfriend is an ex-porn actress; and the manager's boyfriend has a ménage a trois which he says is forgivable because the girls were identical twins. Caffeine is an eccentric comedy about these characters' hapless attempts to repair their fractured relationships as they confront issues of fidelity, betrayal, forgiveness, and commitment. Du ring one lunchtime at this offbeat London coffee house, the relationships of the quirky staff and several couples are suddenly turned upside down by the sudden revelations of supremely embarrassing secrets and idiosyncrasies, generally having to do with their rampaging sexual appetites.

Overall, those are 88 minutes I desperately wish I could get back.

It's the movie equivalent of lukewarm coffee and day-old cake.

A largely unfunny, predictable, and tired crisscross of any number of lowbrow sitcom plots.

The claustrophobic and poorly executed Caffeine is either a play in search of a movie or a movie in search of a play but, either way, it's searching for the wrong thing.

[An] overly antic coffeehouse comedy.

While I realize that the sophomoric angst served up here is some people's cup of java, it's artificially sweetened enough to drive me to herbal tea.

A witless examination of relationships and day jobs, Cosgrove's would-be comedy finds little humor in issues of infidelity, heartbreak (and bodily functions), resulting in a film that's hopelessly amateurish and creatively destitute.
