Over 90 minutes you'll never get back.


I managed to watch it to the end. I honestly TRIED to find something, anything, to like in this film. I even tried to find something to hate in it.

Here was a ten-minute story bloated out to over 90 minutes that felt more like 180 minutes. What a gigantic disappointment! 

Well, no time you spend will you ever get back. I found Morton to be enthralling as she so usually is. The film obviously isn't for everyone but I love these kind of films, British made where they aren't all talking like they've jumped out of a Hugh Grant movie. I find them to have a kind of charm. Morvern Callar, Me Without You etc. I find the dynamic between friends in these movies to be more interesting than your usual fodder.


If you like to do the things you know we shouldn't do
Baby, I'm perfect, baby, I'm perfect for you.
