    Great Independent Film

    I just recently saw "The Week That Girl Died" and I was pleasantly surprised. I say surprised because I am not a big fan of romantic comedies, but this story worked, and it wasn't geared towards any certain audiences because any person I think could relate to this. The acting was very believable and the story was different, but I enjoyed it. There was a lot of cuts of flashbacks from the conversations the friends where having about their relationships. I think that was one of the strongest points of the film. The movie ended leaving a lot of things left alone, but it makes you think which way these characters went with their own situations. I would recommend this to any audiences who enjoys comedies and a lot of different stories packed in one film.

    Smart and funny

    I liked this movie, it is funny and smart, I am glad I stumbled upon it. Screenplay is interesting- good buddies each struggling to find a relationship, it can be very funny at times, but most of all it contains interesting story twists. You will not get bored. Screenplay is good,it flows easily, excellent performance, very realistic, all actors are really good. I very much enjoyed the movie and the feeling it leaves behind. I feel as if I did not waste my time :). I found this movie on youtube and upon seeing it I was surprised that 2.282 users did not comment at all! So just go on youtube, watch it for free and see for yourself! I gave the rating 9 out of 10, that s how much I liked it. :)

    A Must See!!

    Wonderfully written, this tale of 3 best friends in search of love will steal your heart. We can all see a little bit of ourselves in these characters. Full of young "up and coming" talent, this ensemble cast will surprise you. Nicely shot and directed, this feature is an all around winner. Definitely a must see!

    A film where the actors deserve better

    This is a film where the actors are all fine, especially Brigitte Bako and Erik Palladino, in a film where every one of the three couples meet in a situation that feels verrrrry forced to be either cute or to set the story in motion. In other words, it feels like they are contrived movie scenes, not like real life. Even if women who work at peep parlors ever go out with one of their customers, it just doesn't seem realistic at all the way it is written in this film. Also, when one of the characters meets the overweight woman in the film, it feels artificial, the way they look at each other seconds after arguing. Again, the actors are all good, and moments of this film are nice, but overall yet another indie that could have used some rewriting before production got rolling.

    a real gem

    This picture is wonderful. Excellently written and directed as well as acted. These film makers are on their way. A "slice of life" movie that inspires the viewer to reflect on the human condition and relationships. I would highly recommend this film for its sincere and poignant portrayal of life and its challenges.
