Let's be realistic.
It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
I just returned from the U.S. premiere of this movie at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Overall an enjoyable movie, though there seems to be only one subject the characters ever discuss, which is sex. The discussions are frank, and sometimes on the vulgar side. The theater audience obviously found this movie very funny, though I myself found it more touching than funny. I would say it's more of a chick flick, the comparison here to Sex in the City is probably correct, though this movie is not about girlfriends, it's about three generations of women - the grandmother, mother, and daughter - and their twisted and difficult relationships, as well as their individual struggles and experiences. Through all its ups and downs, the movie retains an upbeat and cheerful attitude, and the ending likewise is full of optimism. One negative was that a few times the subtitles were difficult to read (white letters on light background). But this was a minor problem and did not prevent me from enjoying the movie.
