Avenues

As soon as it first started, I was looking at the New York City that I know and love, and the way the people interrelate there. I personally miss that so much but talking about the film it exemplifies it they talk philosophies they talk in vocabularies that maybe they don't even understand so much.

But it flows and emotions come out I personally do not like marvel films, and big boom movies with no plot. This movie definitely has a plot, but it is not a clear line plot. It's a plot that maneuvers like a river, but it has the themes of love disappointment insecurities and the acting was done well this is not lead actors showing off their attractiveness they were not gorgeous but they were more real because of it. It's just a really interesting movie to see. And yes, the scenery of New York City is quite marvelous.

I liked this one quite a bit. It follows a guy named Max who pretty recently lost his brother and seemingly isn't really sure how to take the tragic event. At the start, it focuses on he and his best friend Peter who flew into town for a while on business. You soon learn that these two guys are no less closer than brothers and there's nothing they wouldn't do to help each other and be there for one another.

You follow them as they hang out and enjoy each other's company. They even make a couple of good friends along the way. They butt heads a little here and there as friends do and eventually end up getting under each other's skin, at which point they need a break from each other and the story just narrows in on Max for a little while. It digs a little deeper into his character and shows you a little about who he is and what he's gone through recently.

Ultimately, it weaves Peter back into the story and you are following both of them once again. I hope I didn't make it sound too flat in my brief little summary here. If you like dramas that explore certain events that unfold in a character's life, you will most likely find yourself enjoying this one. I did.

Watch it for the scenery and music alone, if you want. The city is a character in this film, thus the 8 stars! Awesome cinematography.

I've come to have a certain expectation of a film set in New York; especially New York during the holidays. This movie doesn't disappoint. In addition to a bright cast of characters, I found the backdrop of the city just as enjoyable as the film itself. While melancholic at times, this film was lighthearted enough to not leave me wanting to die afterwards. I loved the chemistry between Angarano and Gaynor. A fun, fresh film.
