Objective Rating:
Not my kind of movie, but good performances and writing kept me engaged with it. Deliberately shooting it as poorly as possible made up for any positives, though. It's shot, for no apparent reason, entirely with handheld cameras. I could handle that, but cheap cellphone-quality handheld cameras... why?
