Unlike how it is considered by others, I don't think this movie is a romance comedy. Sure, there is a romantic component, however, as it slowly turns out, the romance is not what it seems to be. This is not exactly a surprise either; the clues are literally everywhere and are really hard to miss. This is not bad, however, as this "not-being-a-surprise" actually makes narrative sense, which is why I like this movie- it all adds up in the end. Except for the ending, which indeed is a little bit rush.

A few giggles along the way. Pretty cute indie flick. Good storyline, however a little hollywood at the end. call me morbid or complex but i prefer an indie film to be a little more complicated. good storyline. easy going,i like slow, meaningful. If the ending did not seem like it was rushed i would have scored it a solid 9.

Canadiana indie; recognized the pharmacist and the dad (they're ubiquitous in Canadian productions). Interesting story. Great acting by main character and sweet romance played out with caring neighbour. I actually didn't see where the story was going; thought it was clever.

Really enjoyed... not a typical Canadian Indie Flick.

Laden with phony dialogue & tired tropes straight out of an obnoxious/self-righteous 90s indie, this gangly, modern melodrama somewhat redeems itself for those with the fortitude to stick it out (much like its main character).

I really quite enjoyed this movie. It gave me a feeling at times that the writing is a bit similar to Hal Harley. (Whatever happened to that genius anyways.) I found much of this quite humorous and fun, and, I must say, I'd rather watch something like this, where the characters feel so real and vivid, than the latest $100 million dollar comic book turned movie fake action stupidity. I guess maybe this movie isn't for everybody - and you'll probably enjoy it more if you're smart, and have learned about psychology - in an attempt to understand yourself and your messed up family, etc. What I'm getting at is this will probably appeal best to people with a bit of self-awareness, and those people who aren't just like everybody else. If you know what I mean.

Was a watchable movie up until we see it's all imaginary. YAWN!!!

Low budget, indie (?) movie. Acting, direction, camera work were fine. Start was interesting and intriguing - there was some fractal World type philosophy at start, although without that word. Funniest moment was probably that car steal at beginning. Not really a comedy. Not really a drama. Romantic - very little. Still, mixture could work, but there was almost nothing not seen, and it became predictable somewhere at middle. Main (anti)hero did not have job, at least that was impression - so, we could say that he had too much free time - for stupid ideas. I wondered couple time how he managed to pay bills, especially when he never had money by self. But that's very common in many movies - young people living fine, even spending money pretty well, while no job. Maybe their main problem is lack of reality, realism ? OK, maybe people watching this kind rather, than some depression caused at workplace, by bad economic perspective. And this movie served well escaping from realism, even with simpler realistic message. Probably more interesting for younger audience.

A pretty depressing story about a pretty depressed dude. Ben, played by Dwight Shrute's brother, hasn't had it so well lately, his marriage fell apart, he just tried to kill himself, but answered a knock on his door instead, which saves his life, he's got an extremely nosy neighbor, cute as well. And then the phone rings, it's Dad, he's having a heart attack. Ben makes it to the hospital just in time to see Dad head off into surgery, and to listen to a quite bizarre confession. On the day Ben's parents adopted a baby girl, they found out Mom was pregnant and they had to send the baby back. Dad has always felt guilty about it, and know Ben wants to seek her out, the sister he almost had. And when he does finally find her, its nothing like what he expects, and goes on a pretty crazy ride. Though it was a bit predictable at times, it was still a well told story worth a watch.
