Such a flat and unengaging film. It's horribly shot too.


I'm actually a fan of Yelchin, Jones and Lawrence, but this was incredibly tedious to watch. The leads failed to capture any kind of empathy or even interest. It was a complete chore and dragged for such a short film.

To each his/her own. Not every movie is for everyone.

I empathized with the leads and was very interested in them. Not a chore for me at all.

I was especially impressed that the entire movie was improvisation. I can't help but be impressed with their performances based on that fact alone.


Actors do not have a job...they have a blast!

I agree. I watched this because so many spoke so highly of it but it was a total waste. I don't think they were ever really in love. It was all very forced.

Having most of the dialogue improv'd was a gamble that may have worked for some scenes, certainly not all. It feels like a novice director. The talent in the actors is there, just under-utilized.

Yeah, the movie didn't really seem to feel the need to make it entertaining.
