I've seen better acting and heard more interesting dialogue in elementary school productions.

Time waster and not the good kind....too bad really, I like Laia Costa allot, especially in Victoria which is an amazing and entertaining film but this snooze does not entertain.

Unbearably dull, no redemption. The ending leaves the audience unfulfilled. Vagueness about vagueness about everything, nothing, something? Confused? You will be even more confused after watching this.

Can we are least get their real names?

Bluebird. Lake. Flop. Hex. Dragon. And then, praise be, an Eliza!

At least it is a great representation of in media res. Great as far as defining it, that is. Defining how to use the storytelling device ineffectively. An effective in media res film would include exposition and flashbacks shown accordingly to eliminate confusion, not sacrificing the audience's connection to the characters and therefore any investment in the story.

One must acknowledge a direct predicament when the compelling Laia Costa and charming Thomas Mann as leads cannot save a film.

She's cute and pretty, that's what gets the positive reviews for the most part, pretty lost girl in need of saving syndrome, because other than her looks she is pretty annoying with the hot/cold thing she has going with the beta male that just keeps hoping and wishing she will notice his good heart and intentions and pick him. She's the wife of an engineer, which by proxy would assume is a straight forward methodical type of husband, financially stable more than likely and not childlike or wishy washy like the trail companion she can't seem to push off. Her and her hiking companion seem immature and reminded me of grade 8 relationships, passive aggressive silly conversations, childish play instead of romance, the fact that she never discloses what she did for a living but looks down on him is frustrating, kinda like real life I suppose, do nothing and expect everything or I will walk off into the morning sun and find another to satisfy my frivolous follies and carnal needs, the fact that he liked her and she was somewhat interested in him and won't be intimate beyond a kiss or two with him but hooks up with slacker greasy guy who actually has no passion and lives in a motel says it all. "Youth is wasted on the wrong people" as was said by porch guy in "It's a Wonderful Life" (1945) I'll take a Mary in a Hydrangea bush over a Bluebird on a trail any day. So other than seeing a 33 yr old woman with a nice butt, cute smile and nice hair, it's a pass mostly.

What a fantastic independent movie. It's a dialogue-based movie that really hits you in the heart. The acting was excellent and this movie made me relate to the dynamics of brief relationships that often come and go. These bad reviews are hard to read. Not every movie needs to be about a pointless superhero with magical powers.
