  A Waste of Time!
  
  A waste of time... A moc-doc that pretends to have a new concept, but falls into a totally predictable and very boring train of thought. It only goes from bad ... read more »

  I liked it, didn't love it.
  
  A sweet little film with a quirkiness and indie quality that's becoming quite a trend now. At times it felt extremerly contrived and scripted, but it was ... read more »
