Too many actors plod their way through this interminable wannabe ripoff of Magnolia. I don't blame them--the acting was adequate (aside from the imaginary friend, who was obviously getting paid by the expression), but every scene dragged in this drama wankfest of clichés.The entire film could have been cut by 25% without losing anything. Did the actors not sense the lack of chemistry of the scenes? Was the director playing video games on his phone while the dialog clomped along to the inevitable?The "surprise" endings were as implausible as a homicide detective bothering to pull over a speeder or a client threatening a hitman to negotiate a price. Ugh.

Overall this was a really fun movie with solid performances. The storyline is told in a non-linear fashion, so it plays like a puzzle that we're putting together as we go. Every time a new character is introduced or we see a new storyline, we're given a new piece of the puzzle, and it's really fun to see how things play out.Indie movies are always hit or miss, especially ones that go straight to video, but this really was a solid watch. Nice performances, solid writing, great direction, and you can just tell the actors and crew are having fun making the film. This might be a small film, but it's a damn good one.

This film is a different take on Christmas. It's all about the choices we make. I enjoyed this film it's a poor man version of "Crash meets It's a Wonderful Life! The dialogue is pretty overall it has a decent flow to it. So sit back and relax let this film take you for a ride. Plenty of super hero movies out there why not watch something about real people.
