ronald h @RT44372985 01/10/2022 The problem with this film, aside from the derivative plot, is working up sympathy for the characters, who are a bunch of stereotypical white millennials. There is not one likable character. Not one. That includes the protagonist, a sulking, self-absorbed nerdy type played by director Alex Karpovsky. We're expected to be concerned about him. Instead, we wish that somebody would slap him. Karpovsky plays Paul, a research lab technician who becomes romantically hung up on a co-worker (Jaime Ray Newman). After she permits him one night of romance and doesn't want to continue, he becomes obsessed. I'm going to go right ahead and spoil it: He kills her. We learn all about his traumatic childhood, as if anybody cares. There are lots of irrelevant scenes to pad this garbage to 90 minutes. Please don't watch this.

I actually had to go all the way to the beginning once I finished and re-watch the first part. I needed to really catch all the details about their fling. I actually missed a few details the first time around. Once I knew the full story, it was easier to tune in so I could truly understand how the story got to where it ended. I am a bit uneasy in how it paints the archetypal "ugly, awkward nerd", because this might confirm a lot of people's notions. I am bit afraid that people might take this a literal lesson on "see, this is why you ignore people like that", rather than it being a story about one damaged, psychotic man. But as a film, I was entertained. The story really pulled me in. See more 10/10/2014 I wasn't expecting much but I'm glad I saw it. The plot will keep you glued throughout. Recommended! See more 07/11/2014 This movie is basically a character study of a deep damaged man who loses control. It's subtle and slow building, but still powerful. Really well acted.
