42 seconds of happiness in 89 minutes of movie
Have you ever tried hanging out with a new group of people only to realize you don't have much in common and, worse, they barely move beyond small talk? Sure, they're decent human beings and you've heard some neat stories to suggest they're worth getting to know, but good lord... You end up listening to layers of inane prattle as they talk over each other and laugh at quasi-humour just to fill the air while you try to not seem as awkward as you feel. Occasionally they make slighting comments to their significant others and get passive aggressive about past grievances, so now everyone feels as uncomfortable as you... but then another barrage of inane prattle wipes the slate clean(ish) and you start looking for an excuse to leave. This movie feels exactly like that. However, there are some exciting and humorous moments throughout the film. The cinematography style is pretty impressive and the use of split-screen is effective without being confusing. Unfortunately the camera work is a bit too shaky and poorly aimed (unless the implied perspective has Parkinson's). Not for everyone, but definitely enjoyable by the aforementioned.
This film is unforgettable
I absolutely loved this film. It is totally unique - the way it is filmed, and the easy way it follows the natural conversations of a large ensemble cast, is amazing. The ensemble cast is also pitch-perfect, not a false note in the bunch. The use of split-screen is also fascinating. I rank this as a must-watch for indie film-lovers, especially anyone who enjoys dramas with a hint of suspense and/or rich character discussions. It's unlike anything else out there.
Not even 42 seconds of a good movie.
I've seen bad movies before, but this is beyond bad. I generally like movies that show friends getting together, so that's why I watched it. But this movie didn't have one character that was likable. They don't seem like friends. Even in the first 15 minutes, all they do is argue and yell. It's annoying, and it seems pointless.
