(This review may contain spoilers).
I actually watched this film only a few days after seeing the trailer for it. The film was entertaining, but it didn’t really strike me as much of a comedy; even a black comedy.
Of the four main characters, I think Maureen was the one I felt the most sorry for. Jess was annoying (though she grew on me by the end of the film) and I had trouble understanding JJ.
I felt that the film did do quite a good job of dealing with serious issues. The media frenzy made a lot of sense, as did the fakely sympathetic talk show host.
I think there was something missing in this film. For me, I’m not quite sure what makes a film one I want to watch again. But whatever it was, this film was missing it.
The actors did a good job and I did like the ending. I just don’t think I’d watch this film again.
