ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
jrrego-980-246040 A good short story. A man meets a stranger on a bench where he eats lunch every day, the stranger seems to know his whole life story and he must come to grips with his past. Acting was decent for a small Canadian short and they did a good job of getting the mood down as well as making the characters believable. I am fond of east coast accents so I enjoyed that part and didn't find it distracting. I found the focusing of the camera at certain parts a bit distracting on my eyes as I found it would focus on the trees behind then the actress then back to the trees and I found I was looking at the trees behind more then I was the actors Overall as a short film it was good and would recommend for someone wanting to see something that's different and not the usual fare that is out there in today's world.
