I did not like this movie. The main story was predictable and the characters were hollow. I found myself growing tired of the characters and bored with the lack of conflict in the film.

But I was very disappointed with her character and acting in this film.

Due to a huge scratch across the DVD I was unable to view the movie. I turned the DVD into the local Blockbuster here in Maricopa and would like for you to send a replacement copy. Thanks

It was a lot of fun trying to keep track of all the different characters as they encountered each other multiple times throughout the movie and the different ways in which their lives interacted were highly creative. Unlike any American film I can think of, and I mean that in a good way.
