Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
klware-95311 You should watch this if you were a model and want to remember how much you hated it and it wasn't what you hoped for. I can't believe I sat through half of it.
FIoret Marjorie Conrads first movie and directing hits it out of the park. Very funny, submerse cast and quirky story that makes you wanna cheer the Irene along. I hope this isnt the first and last time shes giving the chance to create a movie. Just wow, watch you wont be disappointed.
jefferbster As an American independent film I was amazed. Most independent film that comes from America is overly abrasive and circumvents any true approach to film as an art. European film tends to be more artistic, and it might simply be a cultural thing for our film to elicit thought instead of relaying on cheap "thrills" and visual chaos. Despite the brighter lighting and taking place in California, I would classify this as my own coined term "euphoric film noir". The subtle darkness establishes an intrinsic connection to the characters without force. The greater brightness balances this, but cannot be accurately described as "light". Seeing that this is very hard to establish in any film, this is a real achievement for a first feature film. I can recommend this for the European crowd looking to find an American film that doesn't seem very American.
auraclemmens I'll start by saying this looked like something I could watch passively, but the film was engrossing and surprising. It seemed like a hybrid of genres that I hadn't seen before, sort of a 'soft-satire' and cautionary tale for millennials. I fall into the age bracket this is targeting, I guess, but I really do think this film is relatable no matter what your age is. There are a lot of dark comedic moments, some visual transitions that are unexpected. Overall I found a lot of meaning and heart in the film and can tell a lot of time was put into this. This is very accomplished, especially as a first feature. I do hope to see more in the future from this director.
