The movie is billed as a tragicomedy, but there isn't really any humor. I do give props to the dialogue delivery - the actors had a good script and the characters' emotions were conveyed accurately. On a basic level, we can all relate to the two characters as they grapple with a secret. And many may relate to the difficulty of having estranged family members. I can't say it's a memorable or alluring movie, although the scenery and acting were fine enough. In my view, the subplot of the main character portraying a former television star didn't pay off in the end. In closing, it's superb acting with an average plot line.

I had no expectations for this movie and was so pleasantly surprised. It does something that rarely happens it is being original. It is not patterned. You are not watching something you have seen many times. You start out thinking you might know where this goes but I assure you it won't. The cast is great. The main three characters are portrayed very well and the movie never tells the story judgmental. You can actually form your own opinion and it shows flawed people which is how people are and that is fine. It doesn't shy away from the pain and the disappointment life sometimes can be. Good movie, strong recommend.

Emily Bett Rickards et al really hold this one together. IMO, the flaws were: 1. That the Kim character (Rickards) actually had sex in a car with a stranger at a bar and, later, with Nic's (gf/fiancee) father in a hotel room. And the plot focuses on that secret liaison and Nic's shortcomings as a father but not Kim's apparent promiscuity or Nic's poor judgment of character (choice of partner). I don't know if they did get married, reconciled, or just split. 2. the overuse of f-bombs when the affair with the father is admitted. ---------------------------------------------------------------- 1 Deliberately botched (for the "it's so bad it's good" crowd) 2 I don't want to see it 3 I didn't finish and or FF'd through it 4 Bad 5 I don't get it 6 Good 7 Great but with a major flaw 8 Great 9 Noir with moral 10 Inspiring with moral.

Not really exciting and although the story line was plausable the direction they took it was not. Bunch of misfits for friends. Maybe 1 funny part but the rest was just boring 4.9

The dialogue in the first and second scene was actually funny and made it seem like this could be a funny movie. The actors were all really talented. But the only comedy was at the start. Then it was a straight up drama from that point on. Walter (Matthew Glave) sang 'Unchained Melody' for his turn at karaoke. He was seriously good at it. (I would actually buy that version of the song). As a drama this movie works. As a comedy it's an EPIC fail. Maybe someone needs to remove the comedy tag. In the styling of Yoda, "Two funny scenes, a comedy, does not make!".

I was shocked, I was shocked, I felt very awkward at times and I also cried. What more could you want! Diamond in the rough.

Awkward moments, abandonment issues, love, betrayal, and loyalty all clash in this wonderfully charming dramedy between family and friends. Great performances ground this story for a wonderful ride along the California coast and within the psyches of characters hiding their secrets, trying to love and coming to terms with life's curveballs.
