The acting, for a low budget movie, is surprisingly not horrendous. The story is coherently told and is shot in an unobtrusive straight forward manner. It's just that the characters are insipid, the plot is predictable, and sitting through it borders on mentally damaging. The characters are written as if they are supposed to be likable, clever, thoughtful, and funny. They are instead, vapid, predictable, shallow and a total waste of time.
