I would probably rate this more accurately as a 7/10, but as half stars aren't available I think it deserves to go up from that score rather than down, hence the 4 stars.Ī romantic drama that's well worth a look, just don't expect any belly laughs cause it sure isn't a comedy. The ever watchable Mark Duplass has used this method before in the excellent Blue Jay, so working this way must appeal to him. I think I read somewhere that this film was shot over 12 days on an unbelievably small budget, and that a lot of the dialogue was ad-libbed. On the other hand it is a well crafted drama with some fine acting, and this is what it should be judged as.


I would instead put it down to bad marketing. I can happily say that I can usually detect the humour in the darkest of dark comedies but in this case I don't think that humour was the intention of the makers of this movie. Now unless my funny bone was removed whilst I slept, in my opinion there is no possible way this could be remotely perceived as a 'comedy'. On the back of the box, this film is described as "A heart warming comedy about friendship, love and life" To learn more about how and for what purposes Amazon uses personal information (such as Amazon Store order history), please visit our Privacy Notice.
