CGiii Comment

Soup, Sapphists, psychics...and, a guru. Sounds like fun? It's not.

As innocuous as it is, this multi-award-winning film amounts to simple stereotype and saccharine. If Disney were to make a lesbian road movie, they would do a much better job than Jan Miller Corran has done with this!

Quite literally, nothing is shown...everything is told. There's even straight-to-camera insights and voice-over narration...totally unnecessary given that the story is as complex as a 10-piece jigsaw puzzle.

When a film as predictable as this offers no surprises and twists, it's difficult to justify its 94 minute runtime...one for soup-supping psychic Sapphists only!


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...
