An impressive cast wasting their time, and the viewers', with a trite and trivial attempt at quirky situation-tragedy...that comes to a heartwarming conclusion, doncha know. It seeks to engage the auditor's empathy with ineptly-drawn caricatures, set in over-familiar situations, and pretends that it's being witty while doing so...it's the Indie-film equivalent of a mediocre sitcom, and while the cast has done its fair share of mediocre sitcoms, they are capable of much more. I'm not sure I can say the same of the rest of the anti-creative crew in this project; the indulgence in singer-songwriter standards as a sort of unifying theme adds yet another stale ingredient, but at least it presumably gave Joan Armatrading another few bucks, so there's a redeeming quality.
