  • Bad movie

    This movie is just bad, and I could tell that from the beginning.

    Too much time spent on basically nothing, like what is going on? Hard to understand until finally after what seems like forever, you understand the plot, which is just boring and not interesting.

    Then finally the scene of the accident and the movie just turned even more boring and depressing.

    It makes me think like was this supposed to be a comedy, drama, or a thriller? Cause I could not sense any of those genres.

    I'm talking from experience that when the movie has the same director and writer it turns out to be bad. When a movie has the same director, writer, and actor, it's even worse. This movie proves my point exactly. Bad bad bad.

  • Strange and Boring Movie

    My rating can be a bit biased because I normally don't enjoy watching thriller or suspense movies very much, but this movie was simply lacking what makes it a true thriller or suspense.

    Also, the idea of switching between current time and the past using numerous flashbacks doesn't really help in making the movie more interesting. It rather makes it confusing and and harder to understand.

    I would have preferred the story line to be told from beginning to end focusing on their teenage lives.

    All together, I didn't really enjoy the movie. It lacked any real romance or depth in the plot or message. Like what did I learn from this movie? What emotions should I carry on? That someone followed someone else's life because he reminds him of an old friend?

    The ending also doesn't make any sense.

    Never watch a movie again that has the same writer and director cause all the other movies I saw written and directed by the same person were more or less a waste of time and completely boring.

  • A move about nothing

    From previous experience, it seems like all the movies who are written and directed by the same person seem to be a failure. And this movie is no exception.

    I couldn't watch it past the minute 23 because there is simply nothing to follow. First it's a scene about an old man polishing a shotgun, then the about an middle aged obese woman waking up and leaving her home to travel in a car. Then, it's a scene about her daughter who works in a supermarket. Barely any script with too many silent scenes.

    Avoid and save your time on something more interesting cause I don't get the point of this movie at all. About people who are just bored with their life? I got bored just watching it.
