Newness

Weaving down a path toward love with all its tragic twists and turns to find that you are where you should have been to start with. A good story. Well cast.

I felt so connected to this film. The chemistry between Martin and Gabi is palpable. The story is so bittersweet but I really enjoyed how it concluded, it felt complete.

The film has several realistic and modern moments, but the conclusion is somewhat insipid. It's cool photography and the first sex scene between Gabi and Martin has one of the most beautiful sound editions I've ever seen.

How you relate to the film may depend on whether you consider an open relationship to be either a) daring or b) dated. Of course, whether you like the film or not is a different matter. It is meandering, relentlessly talky, and occasionally wearying. It's not a bad film, but by the end, I couldn't care less whether the main characters stuck with the relationship or not.

Meh, this movie was a 1 until halfway through, where it became more than just poly-propaganda (heh, funny word). Way too long, but got an extra star rating due to the great visuals and editing.

Man, what a great film and talented cast. Loved it!

Is it bad that I wanted him to get back with his wife? It seemed he was happier and content with her, whereas with Gaby he's high with the newness of it all. As sweet and perfect as the ending scene was, I don't think Gaby can change that quickly. It won't be long until she wants to see other people again. Besides, the fact that after their _fight_ she goes and stays with the guy who caused it tells me she really doesn't love Martin as much as she think she does.

What a boring movie. I ended up getting pulled away half way into it, so I wasn't able to finish it but I really don't care to see where it ended up going. As I've seen more movies in my life I've realized there is a astoundingly low number of movies that ever "wow'd" me in the third act after putting me to sleep for the first two.
