This has to be one of the worst films I've had the misfortune to see in quite some time. Five so called 'common, every day' scenarios attempting to create characters and situations to 'draw-in' the viewer and identify with either one of the characters or at least the situation.
Problem being that the characters were, generally, unsympathetic, badly formed, two dimensional and, on the whole, incredibly badly acted. In parts, the film was totally risible at the very time it was attempting to be serious. The only scenario that was anywhere near convincing was the situation with the alcoholic mother/reticent daughter. As for the rest - I wasn't interested enough in their characters to care what happened. And as for the American girlfriend. Someone put a plug in it, please!
