CGiii Comment

A film to divide the room...

The main problem being: Bill Hader's Milo - not an endearingly camp down-on-his-luck twat, he's a contemptible clichéed prick..

Unlucky in love, failed actor, approaching middle-age - the only solution...suicide. How original!

Only he fails to pull it off...hence, the film. We have a reunion with his long lost [equally suicidal] nymphomaniac twin...and, the rest is - as they say - their story.

The most interesting question that this film presents is that of consent - unfortunately, it fails to deliver any thought-provoking, opinion-altering answers.

A disposable 'comedy' about nothing.

The(ir) Blurb...

After ten years of estrangement, twins Maggie and Milo coincidentally cheat death on the same day, prompting them to reunite and confront how their lives went so wrong. As the twins' reunion reinvigorates them both, they realize that the key to fixing their lives just may lie in fixing their relationship with each other.
