In general I'm not a fan of independent movies. It is rare that I see an indie movie that touches all the bases.
Have you ever watched a talk show where an actor mentions a scene that was cut in order to keep the movie flowing? Well, no one involved in writing, directing, producing or editing this movie has ever heard of that concept.
I watched this movie on Tubi where the synopsis says, "Two college graduates find themselves at the mercy of a cruel job market and consider a shady business opportunity to solve their financial problems." It is literally 55 minutes into this 90 minute movie before we get an inkling of what that "shady business opportunity" is. A freakin hour of setup! The freakin "French Connection" with it's complex plot didn't have an hour of setup!
The sloooow pace of the movie makes it boring. The plot has a great concept, and it could have been really fun if the setup was half as long and more time was spent on the shenanigans coming from their "shady business opportunity".
Big movie studios have their drawbacks. However this movie would have been better if it was made under the oversight of a major studio. The creators of the movie could have greatly benefited from someone looking over their shoulders and giving them advice.
This movie exemplifies why most indie movies are bad.

I am a guy and I like all genres of movies as long as they're good movies. My favorite genre is romance. The synopsis intrigued me, so I approached this movie with an open mind.
The writers of this movie clearly hate men. The wife is a successful radio host, and she wants a baby. The husband is hesitant because his acting career is in a major slump and he doesn't feel as if he is a good provider. Of course, in the movie it's portrayed that it's perfectly normal for the wife to be incredibly demanding, and the husband's feelings are unreasonable.
Egged on by her man hating friend the wife drastically punishes the husband for a perceived indiscretion in which the husband is totally innocent. What do the writers do? They have the husband apologize. If this happened to me in real life I would be livid. The husband has given NO signs in their two year marriage that he is anything less than 100% faithful to his wife. It's a totally unreasonable reaction.
The movie is totally unrealistic due to the man hating vibes it gives off. If I were in this situation I would begin to question why I should remain in a marriage with such a demanding and vindictive woman.
