Three Night Stand

While the film has a very traditional Rom-Com plot structure, it completely subverts the traditional story that would take place within said structure. The movie is an uncomfortably harsh look at a crumbling relationship through the lens of traditional romantic comedy tropes. A husband takes his wife to a ski lodge for a getaway but, surprise, his ex is there and she recently bought the place. However instead of using this situation just to play out whacky hijinx, we find out that the exes used this lodge as a romantic getaway many times throughout their relationship. The husband is taking his wife here to hopefully spark something into a loveless relationship by taking her to a place he used to frequent with an ex he loves more than her. Watching the couple fall apart just feels so real. From the arguments about the husband's bizarre and specific sexual kinks, to those very real, little moments of spite subtly thrown into casual conversation between a toxic couple, anyone who has ever been in a relationship that they should've left a long time ago but were to scared to do so will absolutely relate to this movie. And the fact that they manage to do this within a very typical rom-com setup just makes the film even more clever. Also the performances of the lead couple are excellent, and help sell the very realistic nature of their failed relationship. And finally, I have to praise the direction, their is some excellent framing and great camera work, with some surprising long takes. You just don't tend to see that type of effort put into the direction of these types of movies. Even some of the better rom-coms tend to be very flatly directed, so seeing so much effort put into this film really made me appreciate it. It's not perfect. It has too many subplots, and while some of these are subversive of their typical counterparts (which is why I think they were included) they don't really need to be there, and do make the narrative feel messy at times. Either way, it's a very good, very overlooked film that I think is smarter than some may realize

A couple go to a ski lodge which happens to be run by the man's ex girlfriend who he is still in love with.

Three Night Stand is a slightly quirky comedy drama. It all seems pretty familiar and the script doesn't really hold any surprises. However it did manage to hold my attention throughout and I did enjoy it.

It starts off as more of a comedy but the second half focuses more on the drama. It isn't particularly funny but it is amusing at times and some of the drama works nicely. The acting is good from all concerned and the characters are all pretty good if a bit of a mish-mash.

Overall this is nothing special but it is an enjoyable way to pass 90 minutes.

Not great, actually a bit all over the place I watched this because I saw Sam Huntington & Meaghan Rath's names attached and I really liked both of them in the series Being Human. They do a good job here too but other than that its a pretty weak romantic comedy with a flimsy plot and some questionable goings on.

Sam and Meghan play a married couple hoping to kickstart their romance on a weekend getaway. They leave the city (of Montreal) and drive to a ski lodge, having awkward car sex along the way. Once at the lodge things get even more awkward as 'Carl' discovers his sexy ex-girlfriend is now running the place. Because this is a romantic comedy Carl tries to keep his previous relationship a secret from his wife while his ex finds ways to tempt him. Eventually he phones for back up and his best friend from work and her husband turn up to add to the chaos. An unsatisfactory (dark) ending for me here too

The movie is cheesy. I watched it while listening to HoUsE records. But whose super secretly, madly in love with Meaghan Rath ? THIS GUY !!! Her hotness made me sorta kinda like but not really watch this movie.. so ya, this movie is great to play while you fold laundry or prep dinner. Meaghan so hot.

Embarrassingly bad movie -- typically Canadian, trying to be bilingual and cross-cultural but ending up just being stupid. Not funny, not moving and that singing duet scene -- cringe-worthy.
