I'm sorry. I heard about it on the radio and decided to give it a watch...but I am sorry, I just don't get it.
I kind of want to relate it to movies like 12 Angry Men and other dialogue driven flicks...Fall from I think the same year...but this was just...bland.
What you have here are people sitting around talking about sex. You have people walking around talking about their relationship.
Before Sunrise did kind of the same thing, but throughout you had the feeling of love that would be lost. This didn't really pull off that emotion.
It also didn't pull off the tension in many other dialogue driven movies...and it didn't pull off the humor either.
It did, however, develop characters very well, so it gets 3 Stars for great characters. But I just can't give it any more. The characters weren't eccentric enough to be appealing, they were just...normal. Normal would have worked if there was more of a plot, more of a goal.
Instead it felt like talking about your relationship with your girlfriend and then relating that conversation with your friends with no real direction and no one really entertaining and abnormal enough to latch onto.
