OK cinema vérité
15 January 2014
As I watched this film I kept thinking: this is like watching some reality TV show such as The Batchelor except that maybe it's real. Then again, maybe not. Nothing at the beginning or the end says "based on a true story" so you never know for sure. In that case this is a fair example of improv. Great premise. The whole thing smacked of America or Americanism or something. I kept thinking throughout: wow, is this ever American. I can't imagine such a film being made anywhere else.

Indeed at times I detected perhaps a bit of real emotion, though most of the time everything felt pretty contrived. But it's not amateurish, much. Just a bit. Is that on purpose or not? We'll never know. Not sure who these people are who made this film but maybe if they ever get a bigger budget they can make something really good. Otherwise, it was not a total waste of 90 minutes.
