Although this movie has some undesirable elements, such as the wandering eyes of passersbys and the mediocre acting of the central characters, this movie also harnesses a rare uniqueness, not found in most hollywood films. At first viewing, I was overtaken by the shear logistics involved in shooting a film of this length, in one cut, with multiple characters intertwining throughout the narrative. Some scenes and acting may seem unnatural and even quirky, however, this film is original in the way that it was shot, and, in my book, redeems itself with its daring approach, and commendable management of multiple characters in real-time in new york city of all places.
