Even Toni Collette could not save this terrible film. Hell, the guy from wings even let me down (he killed it in sideways).
This film plays like a really bad pilot for a show that ends up lasting over an hour. Of course as boring as it is, it felt like much longer. The characters are dull and the plot is nonexistent. This film serves as nothing more than a glorification of the hipster lifestyle that is all too prevalent in the Pacific Northwest.
Characters like the protagonist really do exist up here, so I'll give the one compliment this hack deserves and admit this movie does portray certain aspects of what it's like to live in this region. The protagonist is the all to common Portland/Seattle hipster hag. She cannot accept she is an old woman, so she tries to turn back the clock (in vain) by acting like she's 21 all over again, only she's in her forties. If you think I'm kidding, come live in Portland for a while and see for yourself the deluded parade of old hags who wear pigtails, wear hello kitty backpacks and strut around with their twenty something year old boyfriends, who (obviously) are so desperate they are just happy to be in the presence of a chick who's not twice their body weight and has a pulse, but I digress.
The point is, this movie sucks, has no plot and no characters you care about. This is just one of those stupid "look at how hip I am" movies.
