Anoche, al ver la otra película de los hermanos Safdie, recordé ésta (y la fecha en que la vi, gracias a Twitter).
Ojalá que los hipsters se entretengan largo rato con con Zooey y Lena y nunca nos roben a Eleonore Hendricks.

Atrocious. Literally the worst film I've ever seen. A complete waste of 70 minutes. The main character was disgusting and an awful human being.
-
One of the least inventive, imaginative, insightful, entertaining, enlightening, important films that I have ever seen. It says absolutely nothing and does so in a way that is never ever interesting.

More indie than indie... what are we looking for in this film?
"Turn the windshield wipers on. Grab the ticket."
Steal a car, and it doesn't mean shit."How irresolute did those appear, showing the importance which they set upon their words! Their work was done and their undertakings were successful, while the people all said, 'We are as we are, of ourselves!'" - Lao Tzu
Don't ask me if it was a good movie. I gave it three stars... whatever that means.
It wasn't bad, and that's an accomplishment in itself.
