'Mixed Baggage' is the perfect title for a story of three mixed relationships. Not mixed by race, but it's about a group of people at several different stages of dating. The originality of the script continued to surprise me throughouth.
Who are the leads? There aren't any per se, although probably the two on the movie cover, but you'll see that they share about half the screen time, while each of the other couples shares a quarter each. And they are all involved in some way with each other, whether old friends, new friends, co-workers; they are intermingled and their interactions are entertaining.
This film is not your usual couple meets, couple has ups and downs, kiss - the end. No, this is about a guy and a gal that meet on an airplane and subsequently experience many coincidences that indicate they are fated to be together, but their own misunderstandings and lack of boldness get in the way time and again. The next couple, they've been together for 6 years, dealing with major hurdles, and the last couple are morphing from a professional relationship into a more romantic one and exploring options.
The dialogue is particularly refreshing and the characters bring the story to life. Everyone is unique and interesting, and there is a lot of good humor to experience; so don't miss 'Mixed Baggage'.
