I'm so very sick of these non-endings. This trend needs to stop. It's not fair to take a viewer on an emotional roller coaster and then end it abruptly with no resolution.

Do not be swayed by the reviews. Such a pointless and boring affair. Avoid

Excellent! Anazing- something everyone needs to experience.

This just had to have been made on a very low budget, the hand held camera with one camera from start to finish tells you that. It could easily have been done with one long take. I read the reviews before attempting to watch this and some seemed genuine enough, but please, this was crap from start to finish. Way too much super close camera work wrecked it for a start, who wants to see the pores of someones face when they are talking on the phone? As you get into the movie it is easy to see why the main subject is single. Give this a miss, not worth wasting 90 minutes of your time. 2 stars is being generous.

I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into when I threw it on but I was pleasantly surprised. The story flows so well. While the entire film is shot on the main character, Ian, you easily get lost in his world. You feel for him as he falls deeper in love with every phone call and text message he gets from Sophia, even though he has never met her. It's something many of us can relate to and it brings up the realness of our digital age. Our current way of engaging with each other may be through screens but the emotions are just as real. Totally recommend it.

Stumbled upon this one and absolutely loved it. Subverted my expectations, and went in directions I wasn't expecting. The dialogue kept me hooked, and as someone else here mentioned, it goes to show that you connect and fall in love with someone for their mind - not just for their looks. Recommended!

This film takes us on a journey of a relationship that could almost never occur in real life. But just because they don't have a traditional in person relationship does not mean they cannot achieve the kind of connection we all hope to find. I am still not sure what is to happen to them in the end, but if nothing else they got to experience a time in their lives where love and compatibility were possible. I would like to know how/where these people found the time to know so much about the actual artists behind famous paintings. Jesus. Listening to those two was like being in an art history course I never took in college, lol! But I get it. Finding something in common you are passionate about can take things to a whole new level and make the person less replaceable than normal, despite the never ending plethora of singles online that some find addictive.

I suggest giving this movie a watch. It's better than most romance dramas and shows you a different look at the ups and downs of Online Dating, Self-Reflection, and being true to oneself. I really enjoyed the movie more than I thought I would; so much so that I'm writing this review. Everything was Top Notch from the Cinematography, Directing, Writing, and Acting! I'm definitely looking forward to what the Team at Cut To The Chase Films are coming up with next.

Thoroughly enjoyed everything about this film, from it's mesmerizing cinematography to its lavish score of drums, IRL provides an accurate portrayal of the modern day date scene.
