The Argument

This film stands out for its original idea and solid execution. The direction is competent, and the cast delivers convincing performances. Visually, it's engaging, and the pacing keeps the audience interested throughout. However, despite its strengths, the movie doesn't leave a lasting impression. While you'll appreciate its creativity and craftsmanship while watching, it's unlikely to stay with you long after the credits roll. It's an enjoyable experience in the moment, but it lacks that special something that makes a film truly unforgettable. This film is a refreshing break from formulaic storytelling, offering a concept that feels genuinely original. The director takes a creative risk, exploring themes and ideas that aren't often seen in mainstream cinema. The plot unfolds in an intriguing way, keeping viewers engaged and curious about what will happen next.

When other people started playing the main characters, that was funny. Thats what it should have been - Maggie Q plays the Australian, who plays the actress, who plays Maggie Q etc. Exaggerating each other. Cause the 1st half was boring

This movie has a lot of likeable things, but still collapses on itself. The writing is really inconsistent and has a lot of ups and downs throughout the runtime. The movie starts off good, but then some scenes become too dragged and humour becomes pretty forced at times. Instead of quirky, somehow in the middle, the writing shifts to being absurd and then gradually moves to quirky again. Fogler, Pudi, Coleman have done good, but it's Maggi Q who really stands out. This movie had some potential, but crashed.

The premise of the story is pretty crazy. I can't get into the story at all. Even though the ending justifies all the preceding footage, I can't get into the story at all.

A couple have an argument & basically force their friends ( more Like work Acquaintances) to relive the night that lead up to the Argument over & over (Groundhog Day ish) but less unfolding

It's a perfect set up for a play & indie Film because it only requires one or two locations an Interesting wacky premise. Great cast all fun people to watch and very well put together Hollywood quality ,some awkwardly funny bits.

You do have to suspend your belief quite a bit though Because for a group of friends let alone (Acquaintances) to willingly relive a horrible & awkward night even once just feels highly unlikely.

When they reenact the night the 1st time there's only one voice of reason Early on and it takes a bit long for the friends to realise something's up .I think if they had shortened that bit and and made the characters a little more aware/ responsive to the game being played quicker & cut out 10-15 mins overall and Get to the scene when the actors came in quicker. It would have been pretty perfect.

Still an enjoyable and entertaining enough movie if you know what you're going into.
