There are some good moments with dialogue and interactions. The scene with her sister was definitely a highlight. They don't really say anything to each other, but you can imagine what the conversation would be like. Sadly, the whole movie is like this. When it's not some dumb content made for drunken teenagers, there might be something deeper than the movie doesn't tell you.. It just doesn't seem to work. While I can concoct some imaginary reasons or feelings for it all, I'd rather have the writer / director tell me (in some way) what they think, or the meaning of this little photoplay they have created. At least try to hide it in some visible way that we can find in a first viewing (because I doubt people would ever rewatch this) for those paying attention. What was it that made them make it? It's almost like I wanted more.. but that would be a compliment, and it isn't. The camera work is awful, even for a cheap-looking movie like this one. It moves too much, and I started thinking I needed to distance myself from it because it zoomed-in too much on the characters. I feel empty and bored. It's like I wasted my time.

Besides the last act, this movie is like a slice of nostalgia pie from the mid to late 2ks. The golden era of everything 'indie'. From music to film and before social media ran the world. Before all the buzzwords especially'hipster', when 'hipster' was still attached to it's original meaning more than that of a certain look or type of smug person. I was happy to be of that time. Now I am nearly 30 and life a whole ocean away in Japan where I live 'my dream'. A great little flick that took me back to the feeling of the hustle and bustle to living that dream. As far as performances. I will stick to Mackenzie her being the only good part to me of the latest Terminator installment made me dig into her catalogue. I hope she continues to get more and more roles. She is badass, beautiful, and groovy. Kanpai! -Malizilla

The way this film's described makes it sound like some utter tosh such as Dude Where's My Car but it's actually nothing like that. It reminds me of The Odyssey in its pinball motion from character scene to character scene. I found it hard to get invested in the actual plot or the conclusion; they felt unconvincing and a little like they fizzled out but the characters and situations along the way made it easy and entertaining to watch.

I shouldn't be surprised by the reaction to this film, in a time when indie films have to be brutally realistic, or feature decayed characters, or have scenery gnashing performances to make a mark. There can't just be chaotic, sweet little movies made about someone's ordinary life, someone's annoying, trashed, tender youth - if they don't make a profound statement about life. But these little movies always seem to have startlingly true moments, stunningly real feelings. They're not throbbingly stylish or cinematic, so they let their characters come through, sometimes with painful honesty - Izzy manages to be a crashing fail, and at the same time, her experience of the pain of first, and long-lasting love is like a honeycomb crushed in a fist. She's dirty, wild, funny, lazy - but look at how she folds down onto the bathroom floor and doesn't cry, but lets out this half scream, half moan as the person she's built so much of herself in has just walked away. Watch how she looks at her embittered sister who she used to be so close to, while they sing a song they put so much of their youth and essence into. There's love, there's fear, shame, longing - but there's still that dazzle of hope in her eyes. She's still young, and she hasn't been crushed into uniformity yet. How can you not feel the truth of this? The fine line between hope and fantasy is a tightrope she walks the entire time. Is what she wants beautiful from afar, but up close, when it opens its mouth, is it just ridiculous? What is the fate she's going to make, if she decides to let go of the one she's been hitching her heart to half of her life? I wish I could've stayed with her longer to find out.
