Blowing Up Right Now

Ask yourself this... how would you and your partner spend the loast 10 minutes of your life, because you are in the core zone of an incoming nuclear missile attack? well this film just describes one couples frantic choices, for good or bad, making this quite a humble piece of houmoristic salsa, enjoying eachother at its best and its worst.

its a comedy, but also a realitycheck for us all, to make some recheck on your own life. its a verbalistic voyage of love and hate, and touches quite a few emotional strings. the acting are very nice, actually sweet, and the production are far above average, though a bit slow at moments

the grumpy old man had a some monkey laughs here and there and will therefore recommend you all to have a look too

This movie was a realistic take on every relationship that has gotten too comfortable. It takes 1 mistake, or 1 natural disaster, or 1 death or any big lifetime struggle to force 2 people to see what they have or what they want. To see that they might already be with the person they not only want to live with but also would die for and with.

This movie was unique from the start and as it reached its conclusion I was about to write it off as just another movie. Then the last 5 minutes happened and my score went from a 5.1 to a 6.1.

Good date night movie.

6.1

This movie is not a masterpiece but it makes you think. It hits so close to home, to our patterns, to our beliefs, to our own mistakes. So I actually watched it all in one sitting not because they're the best actors or it was the best made movie - but because I could relate.

The ending was a bit strange and anti-climatic for me but I get it. I've been there (minus the nuclear war thing). I've made the same mistakes. I've blew it the same way. And when someone makes a movie that almost "understands" you, it deserves a high score.

This movie reflects modern relationship with a twist of apocalyptic scenario. It shows how this generation is so much into showing off relationship goals on social media but lacks real communication off line. Something very common in this generation.

The actors did well on their part, very natural as if just two person really communicating. Well timed exchange of dialogues.

I am surprised though, i can seem to find this movie on facebook when i tried to update my status.

This movie had so much potential, but unfortunately just doesn't live up to it. Still, it was an interesting movie to watch. The two main actors were terrific, especially Sujata Day who really felt natural and a joy to watch.

I was hoping this film would be like a reverse Miracle Mile (one of my all-time favourite under-rated films), but... it isn't. The premise of an imminent nuclear strike felt like it was kind of half-heartedly interjected as an excuse for the characters to have a more intense breakup, but honestly it felt false, and I did get tired of the back and forth of the relationship.

It was also too easy to tell they had a minimal budget, as the "panic" and supposedly imminent nuke scenes were just.... yeah, not there. Again, it felt fake and just an excuse for them to talk more.

The worst part was so much of it revolved around social media - yes, it's current and perhaps realistic, but it was just really annoying and unnecessary, detracting from the story rather than adding to it. There was much much more social media featured than the bare minimum "imminent death" that was promised.

In the end... it was okay. It was worth watching once, and as another reviewer said, the last 5 minutes made it interesting. I just wish they'd actually stuck to the real idea here - breaking up amidst the threat of a nuke attack - instead of all the social media stuff.
