Dull and depressing
Tricked by a pretty couple, damnit
This is the reason I always get anxious during opening credits from small time productions or indie size studios.
The writer clearly couldn't decide on what creative choices to make early on, was it going to be another take on an open relationship or a gay drama.
Way too ambitious, didn't work. Cliche beats and fairly mundane dialogue.
There was no arc towards making their important relationship decision, it just happened out of nowhere.
The drama was telegraphed all the way after we're introduced to the cliche premise.
The moral tale doesn't have any redeeming qualities other than an open ended decision by the female co protagonist to free herself to continue the self discovery.
The baby scenes in the park magically appear like set pieces. Did he have to stalk the area until the Father and son showed up? This just added to the lack of believability. Are we really meant to believe a girl that has been with one man soon after is shagging strangers within 2mins of meeting them in quick succession?
If this was a college project I'd say it was a good start, but this film made it to subscription TV
