The film centres around a unlikeable, self centred miserable character who most people would just kick out of their lives. But not her enabling friend who doesn't seem to have an ounce of intelligence. Non empathetic, childish characters make this film miserable and dull to watch.

Wasted Potential??
Friends cockblocking friends is something I know of and when I saw the synopsis, I didn't know how to feel about but I wanted to watch it. The topic at hand is portrayed almost on the nose, the matter being dealt with is usually very subtle but would be noticeable by an adult of the same past experience.
The film concentrated more on the act of cockblocking than the reason behind the actions. At times it will feel like it's spoon-feeding you the film rather than letting you figure out the film yourself.
I have to commend the idea though, as the person who came up with it had to face their own actions and realize what they were doing. An idea like this one definitely comes from experience.
Actors seemed to understand the film and script which resulted in them yielding a performance better than one you'd see in modern blockbuster films.
Had the film taken the cockblocking very seriously, this would've been a gem to it's intended audience.
Overall a good film with undeniable wasted potential.
Friends for life
What is friendship worth? And what does it mean when you have a friend for life (no pun intended) - what life are we talking about? And what interests are the ones that are most important? Of course the two friends here do mean well. And they say that the road ... you know the saying with the good intentions? The question still remains if it is good - or how one would know what is best? Life - not easy at all.
I don't think the movie is too surprising. There are some twists and the characters really do try their best to do the best for each other ... you might get annoyed by that being the prime directive ... but this is about what life is about - the drama of it. What we have to do and/or sacrifice to step into a new section/part of life.
Well made and well acted, it still has to be your cup of tea for it to make sense for you to watch it.
