Review

pretty bad movie, but not as bad as i was expecting. i was expecting something marginally better than material girls, but, alas, i got something slightly better and, therefore, less interesting. through most of the film i found myself in a sort of stupor – somewhere between brain dead and mildly entertained. in this way the film was able to make me sympathize with the main characters like few films are able. for the duration of the film i felt about as vacant and idiotic as the characters must have on a daily basis. i doubt that this was the intention of the filmmakers, but that was my response. perhaps it was a self-defense mechanism to just shut down mentally while i was watching the film. who knows.
