Loved this film! It was so "right" for what we are all going through (lockdowns, remoteness, anxiety etc) . The characters were perfect and it was almost voyeuristic, watching them. You really got to care for their characters, to like their characters and almost felt a part of their special relationship. Bravo!

For those who value simplicity, real and not overly frabricated stories, this is it. Simple is the most difficult thing. Keeping it simple, being simple is not easy. However, this movie does it so well, the acting, the writing, and the ambience. So real and beautiful history about friendship.

Not too sure who tagged this a comedy but it is everything but

it is touching and deep about human matters of the highest importance

I do not think it will be a film that will fade from anyone's consciousness in a hurry

Totally watch it but comedy .... no ... not at all ... at any point

Drama ... human drama ... witty at times but disturbing also.

Quite the hard-hitting drama that uses videoconferencing software in an effective way (compared to inane horror movies), and at times felt so human it hurt. Parts of this were like the Duplasses and Natalie Morales (who is so good in this) had an inside track into my psyche/history. And there was a good amount of humor to leaven what very quickly becomes serious subject matter, of importance to this particular moment in time for sure, but also eternally applicable. This is the story of how we get to know, care for, and love each other, regardless of circumstance. I just thought it was beautiful, and I hope it gets recognized in some way.

I've been studying Spanish, so I watched this movie reluctantly despite its basis in streaming video (bad memories of Zoom meetings during COVID!). I was richly rewarded: the acting was great, the characters convincing, and it was fun listening to their interactions in Spanish. (Note: don't worry -- there's plenty of English too, and of course subtitles are built in.) Yes, there were some plot holes, and yes, there were some very predictable tropes. But the story was honest, charming, and very watchable.
