Pretty good
No doubt the film could
use some cleaning around the edges. The film has some truly great
writing sprinkled in with some kind of average writing, which makes the
whole thing sort of frustrating. But really, it's pretty good. The two
leads are really fantastic and they have a lot of chemistry, which would
have been the biggest hindering factor if they didn't. They make the
film work as well as it does. Mostly, it's just really well-made
technically for being an independent film. I really wish that more
people find out about it because it deserves to be seen by more people,
and I look forward to seeing what the director/writer does in the
future. Definitely recommended.
