What transpires over the course of a literal 1 minute and 32 seconds prompted me to pause and come over to IMDb to read about what I was getting myself into before going any further.... This is all in one shot, one take, in real time...
1. (0:02:50) Almost 3 minutes in, a friend arrives to "get ready" at this girl's place where all of the friends are coming to meet up. He makes an immediate bee line to a back room...
2. (0:03:12) About 20 seconds later three other friends arrive with two coolers and bags and all immediately take seats on a couch...
3. (0:03:45) A friend asks where the first guy is and another friend who arrived WITH HER just seconds ago answers that "He's still in the bathroom." How would he know that?
4. (0:03:55) The friend in question says he's still getting dolled up to the annoyance of the girl who lives there. The dude has only been there for all of 1 whole minute.
5. (0:04:12) He finally ascends from the back looking EXACTLY as he did 75 seconds ago when he arrived and the girl fumes "Oh about time." as if they had been waiting on him for a lot longer than the 75 seconds she has and the 27 seconds it was for everyone else.
6. (0:04:22) Then the girl says they should go and pack up the car... Why did her friends even bring those coolers and bags into her place to begin with? Wouldn't it have been easier to just unload from one car to another?
Now that may all sound nit-picky but seeing it might be indicative of the remaining 44 minutes I think I'll just bow out here. Which is also why I didn't include an actual rating as it'd be unfair to rate a film I hadn't actually watched enough of to really judge properly.
