I watched this because I want to see more Dichan Lachman movies. I first saw her years ago and then more recently in "The 100". There's something about her face that is mesmerising.So I'm really glad to say that we see a lot of her face in this very pleasant movie - lots of close-ups which show up her incredible features.But what was really surprising for me was the acting - it was really good. I was expecting poor acting with pretty faces, but I was pleasantly surprised.Nice to read Dichan's parents writing a review too! I hope Dichan gets more recognition and more films offers. Can't get enough of her.

A little autobiography then from writer-director Anton King? I like Fran Kranz and Dichen Lachman but their roles and dialog were awful. Kranz's character does variations on the same joke over and over. Lachman's character, the epitome cool combined with cluelessness, is not that interesting. There might be something universal about relationships buried here but it was obscured and trivialized here.
... View MoreI don't agree with why this film exists really. It was crowd sourced with the draw to internet users by having half of the DOLLHOUSE cast in it. The target audience of 'people who don't care at all what these actors are in but are just happy to see them on their screens' seem pretty happy with the finished product, but I don't really. It's a completely clichéd story of some nerdish guy who doesn't think he can really talk to girls trying to win his ex back and finding love in other places along the way. The actors all have this great likable quality that makes them fun to watch and they really do their best with the bland characters they have to work with. This film isn't half as likable as it thinks it is, it's pretty bland and formulaic. You'll have fun seeing these actors and you'll like them but not really the characters. Pretty much a waste of time.
... View MoreI can't believe how boring this movie was. I do not know what was up with the camera either, whenever they had a close-up the background would shake. Very cheap dumb movie the only reason I watched it was I was super bored. I love actors in the movie, but the plot was very predicable and just leading up to it was so drawn out. I kept telling myself it would get better and be worth watching, but that was so not true. Save yourself the yawning and watch something with more depth and story line. I really just kept thinking this would be a great movie if Dichen just turned into a vampire and killed them all, but that was just wishful thinking.
