While the disjointed tale of contemporary alienation doesn't always connect the dots, it has a raw energy and sense of fun that's infectious.

Reviews for Floundering
One of those "chatty slacker" flicks that actually delivers some interesting characters and worthwhile conversations.
It's an engaging, occasionally hilarious story that occasionally seems as though someone had finally gotten hold of all that twentysomething malaise without intent to exploit.
