Quotes: Henry Welles:
Sometimes I wonder how I got to be this person. You have a version in your head of who you think you are and then one day you realize that you're just the sum total of a bunch of bad decisions and stupid behavior.
User Review
High Cost? Not really
Rating:
This is another of those grey area films for me. Not because of the
acting, I think Zach Braff and Isabelle Blais hand in some solid
performances. Not even for the definitely overall indy film feel of the
movie, which serviced the story ...well. The problem lies within the
premise itself.
I'm not one to issue spoilers in a review, so you'll just have to view
the trailer and suss out the plot for yourself, but there are
situations that are introduced between the main characters that simply
do not ring true, do not support the weight of the plot, and do not
convey a strong enough emotion at times when the events eventually
payoff.
Despite all this, I don't actually hate the film and found myself
wanting to like it more than it probably deserves (despite a second act
that dragged on a little longer than it should have.) Currently one of
the films screening at the Tribeca Film Festival, I say, when it hits
theaters, if you've seen all the other films you wanted to see, find
yourself with nothing to do on a particular day, have a little extra
spending cash burning a hole in your pocket, and you absolutely must
sit in a theater and watch a film why not? There are worse films you
could watch.
