What was once cool ain't cool no mo.
Okay so I got around to watching this. Im not big on romance movies because alot of it is just corny to me. With that said this is what I would call a raw "romance" movie. Really this is just an movie on life and relationships.
I was a bit confused about half an hour through the movie because I thought that the movie was trying to introduce new characters way too late into the movie. That wasn't the case the movie was just jumping back in time in somewhat of a flashback to the beginning of the couples relationship.
The couple in this one is Dean and Cindy. Dean is a good father, a cool guy with a job, not a dope one but he has one, and he love his family life. Cindy is a nurse with a dissatisfaction about how her life has turned out or her man choice or her interpretation of his lack of ambition or whatever the fuck women turn sour over years into the relationship when its too late. You probably can tell as I see it all the problems are Cindy's fault. The problems are her fault.
They do alot of flashbacks in this movie to how the couple met and the evolution of the relationship. Adopting a mild version of Quentin Tarantinoesque filming they jump back and forth in time so you gotta pay attention to this closely. Its not the most exciting movie in the world but I wouldn't say it's boring either. Mellow would fit the mood description of this movie in my opinion.
Jumping back for second, it can be seen as Dean's fault for falling into a comfort zone with Cindy. He felt he was happy and he got stagnant.
I started writing out the story of the movie but stopped because it was gonna be too long and woulda spolied the movie. Yeah! Thats right! I was going to spoil this movie for anyone reading this. But I didn't. In essence the movie follows the relationship of Cindy and Dean from beginning to present time/end in this movie.
Not the manliest movie I can see chicks crying at the unraveling of this one.
The overall execution on this movie was above average.
3.5/4 stars outta 5 stars
