Abigail (Christina Ricci) is meeting her friend Kate at a bar. It's actually a setup for a blind date with Benjamin Conway (Hamish Linklater).
Movie always make the ending to fit audience expectation, except this one. That's why I rate a 6 as it's unusual.
Am I the only one who was immediately put off that this divorcee with two kids and a previous abortion gets herself pregnant right off the bat with a total stranger with no real responsibilities (whom we find out a bit later was cheating on a girl friend)? Or that we have no idea throughout the whole movie exactly what either one of them does for a living (though she appears to be write books for kids, how original)?
This film start with a man "Benjamin" sleep with a woman "Abigail", they brushing teeth together, and the flashback of the day before scene! As turnout, this film is about Abigail unexpectedly pregnant, after she copulate with Benjamin(a guy she barely know)!
The gods of alphabetical Sky movie watching decided that "10 Things We Should Do Before We Break Up" should be the next film I watch. A romantic comedy(-ish) starring Christina Ricci and Hamish Linklater.
It is unfortunate that this film ran out of money before they could finish filming. Maybe we could start a GoFundMe to get this movie into the 'endy' club!
This movie has lots of low points. It's story isn't great, the acting ranges from fine to terrible and it was obvious shot on a show string budget but it's biggest issue is the characters.
A slow story that's goes nowhere but a break up, using time lapses! A terrible ending too!
The movie itself is poor for a number of reasons as already described in more detail in other reviews. What was shocking to me was the continuity, worth watching this poor film just to see how awful the continuity is!
