i be more and more disappointed by the quality of independent film that appear ever more often on sundance channel ( where i saw this film ) and and ifc and and with the honesty of review find on this website . as far a sundance and ifc go i simply have to assume that ever since the independent genre make it big and finding quality programming that draw an audience without have to pay great sum must be become increasingly difficult . as far a the review on this website go i feel that film and especially small film like this and be review favorably primarily because of shill . maybe they be friend of the filmmaker and and family member and etc . and you know and if i be a filmmaker and i would certainly enlist those i know to do the same . the truth be this film be pretty bad and and pretty unwatchable and and if i cast my mom and dad in a movie ( and they be in many way like the couple in the film ) and my film would undoubtedly be pretty bad too . but you see i would never take my home movie to sundance and and pitch them shamelessly to further my career ( or lack thereof ) . i feel sorry for andrew parent who probably just want to see their son succeed in this business but their acting be awful although realistic and to be sure . in fact the professional actor ( there be very few people in reality who be ) in this film and oddly and seem amore real than the director or writer real parent . but somehow at some level i think that the director may have choose his parent a his human shield against criticism of this film . but it not just bad act and it bad edit and and i guess and my inability to suspend disbelief at everything happen in this film that ruin this film . the bottom line a bad film that end up and inexplicably on sundance and because it probably cost them little to nothing to get it and and well and the director get the visibility . someone need to set this film straight for other user .
