CGiii Comment

There's nothing worse than a self-producing 'star' - Duplass is that irritating 'star'. Hopefully, he is actually acting - because he lunges towards the downright obnoxious...an ego allowed to run riot.

The premise: a lesbian gets a little drunk and suggests sex with a straight man - he obliges, as any self-producing star would...

The writing, presumably by a mature person, is inadequate and immature...that monstrous word 'awesome' is uttered too often...'fuck' and 'super' are the staple words that construct Shelton's sentences.

The camera work, in too many places, is lousy - is out-of-focus in vogue?!?

An indulgent snore-fest that totally excludes its audience.

The(ir) Blurb...

Mourning the death of his brother, Jack's friend Iris invites him to her father's cottage for some alone time to recuperate. Unbeknownst to either of them, Iris's sister Hannah is also staying at their father's cottage recovering from her recent break-up. One entire bottle of tequila later, Jack and Hannah wake up to find Iris at the door. They each have secrets that they're tying to keep and they each have feelings that they're trying to sort out.
