5 Years Apart (2019)
3/10
nothing
5 January 2021
Sammy (Michael Vlamis) brings Emma (Chloe Bennet) home from the bar and are having random hookup on the couch. They are interrupted by his brother Andrew (Scott Michael Foster) and her half-sister Olivia (Ally Maki) who are a married couple. They didn't know their connection before hooking up. It's the brothers' parents' house. They have the same upcoming birthday, 5 years apart. The two pairs of siblings have different outlooks.

I know three of these actors. Otherwise, this is not worth the time. It starts off well with a fun opening but it quickly grinds to a halt. These are not compelling characters or much of a rooting interest. They bicker and argue and I don't care. These are not real people. They are just one dimensional figures. It tries to be funny but it's not. I don't get the medics. Are they funny? This is nothing. I haven't seen this filmmaker's previous works and unlikely to see his future works.
