Three very different couples spend an after-party at the home of a widowed friend, and as night barrels into morning, play a drunken game of "truth or dare" that leads to shocking and subtle revelations about themselves and their partners. On the surface, this sounds intriguing, and yes, it has its moments, but semi-likable characters, amateurish acting, and spotty dialogue detract from what could have been a very good movie, leaving an uneven film where the good is outweighed at times by the bad.
Obviously very low budget, the movie has a very "student film" feel to it, which includes lengthy artistic scenery shots and a puzzling score. The characters have decent stories and conflicts, but they are mined through "does anyone really talk like that?" dialogue and presented by dicey acting (with the exception of Celeste Marcone, who does a lovely turn as Elianna).
I certainly didn't hate it, and the stories of relationship struggles will resonate with people... the couples are very sexually diverse and viewers may well see themselves in one or more of the characters. But it's probably not for everyone and the entire production could've used some tightening up. I'm a 4.5 rounded up to a 5 because it's a courageous effort and an interesting glimpse into sexuality and coupling.
