Review:

A little bland and unexciting. Needs something punchier to appeal to a broader demographic.

• Trailer: B-; C+; B-

Review:

I don't love the music, but I don't hate it either. The unfortunate lack of dialogue doesn't invite much attention, but the images often say enough by themselves.

It could be an interesting character study of a lovable loser finding love or it could be a predictable indie romantic drama. The dialogue seems a bit forced in places and situations a bit too orthodox.

A longer trailer helps the film look a bit more mature than the predecessors, but there's a lot of common sense rhetoric on display suggesting we don't get much as an audience.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
