It's
ultimately a thoughtful movie, about people trying to grow into the next (or current)
stage of life. It is seriously under lit — -perhaps it was so low budget they
didn't have money to rent enough lights. The first half is also drags. There is a
lot of literate talk with some insights, especially about the academic
life of the mind versus real life. It is nice to have a move that depends more on the dialog
than on action sequences. It's too bad it is not a little better.
