Long Weekend

In fact it isn't really a comedy, more of a romantic movie with some humor sprinkled in. I like movies that use a unique approach and this one does. It isn't a great movie but it is entertaining enough.

My wife and I watched it at home on DVD from our public library. At the 27 minute mark she said spontaneously "This isn't a very good movie." Part of that was motivated by the filthy language the Wayans character used, and some of it in front of the small child. Poor script writing I suppose.

Then something dramatic happened about the 32 minute mark, something that changed the whole complexion of the man-woman relationship. Now we understood why she seems so vague and so unusual and why she carried thousands of dollars of cash in her purse.

Worth a look for anyone who an enjoy a movie that veers off into an unexpected direction.

This movie was very interesting about the struggles of possible mental health, a break up, a love story, and finding who you really are and I think that Finn Whitrock, who I had never heard of was just amazing in this movie. Damon Wayans Junior played an incredible part as his friend Doug and he was pretty Likable. The story is very odd. Very different yet might seem unbelievable at parts. But when you get to the end, you will understand. The girl that played Vienna played a very interesting part and I thought she was a great actress in this part, but Finn really stood as Bart. OK, so he's not bad on the eyes either.

It is not for me to judge others, but i cannot see how you can rate this film so low, it was a wonderful story and i found the relationship between the main characters, especially Zoe Chao who as "Vienna" was bubbly and funny and made the film fun to watch, although still taking on board the seriousness of " Bart" who she come across in the Film.

The story evolves with the secret that Vienna has ,that at some point during the film all is revealed. The problem for Bart is how he deals with it and how it effects him personally.

I guess the only issue for me was the expectation of if or when all will be revealed, but overall it is a good watch.

Acting was superb..... definitely a different kind of romance. Worth a watch !

You know those movies that you can't stop talking about to your friends and if they watch it, it's glorious, and those who haven't seen it can't relate and are sick of hearing about it?

Thats how much I enjoyed the art direction, twists, and how you are 'involved' in wondering 'how it's going to happen', or maybe it isn't 😉, and the scales of wonder you slide through.

It's a feel good, relatable love story that appeals to our sense of wonder and it hits all the bases.
