    Intense

    Excellent acting, particularly the two women. Would make a great play in a small theater.

    Enjoy The Ride

    This ambitious film tackles some of the deepest feelings so many people grapple with and try to get rid of-envy, jealousy and more. The actors did a fine job as the movies themes unfold and build to a dramatic crescendo. This movie is sure to entertain with a combination of dry humor and unraveling and heightened drama.

    Definitely Half Full

    An outstanding tour de force by each of the four actors. Views of friendship, trust, fertility, and marriage are examined through four ever-changing, ever-complex lenses as the four protagonists as they share dinner and wine.The topics subtly shift and grow in intrigue and intensity to its important and compelling climax. A thought provoking production that is not to be missed!

    Keeps you spellbound from beginning to end

    Right from the onset you are drawn into this carefully crafted story about two couples reuniting for what should have been a very pleasant evening but turned out to be anything but. As layer after layer is peeled back, each characters innermost feelings of jealously, anger and more Is exposed. The writing is brilliant. Interspersed throughout the dialogue are well timed laughs that serve to break up the ever apparent tension. With twists and turns, the viewer could never suspect its ending, which leaves you thinking a long time after the movie has concluded. This movie is well worth watching a second time.
