Emily Bett Rickards et al really hold this one together.
IMO, the flaws were: 1. That the Kim character (Rickards) actually had sex in a car with a stranger at a bar and, later, with Nic's (gf/fiancee) father in a hotel room. And the plot focuses on that secret liaison and Nic's shortcomings as a father but not Kim's apparent promiscuity or Nic's poor judgment of character (choice of partner). I don't know if they did get married, reconciled, or just split.
2. the overuse of f-bombs when the affair with the father is admitted.
---------------------------------------------------------------- 1 Deliberately botched (for the "it's so bad it's good" crowd) 2 I don't want to see it 3 I didn't finish and or FF'd through it 4 Bad 5 I don't get it 6 Good 7 Great but with a major flaw 8 Great 9 Noir with moral 10 Inspiring with moral.

However, when he later realizes in shock that she is actually the girl his daughter is suppose to marry, he becomes deeply conflicted about whether or not they should come clean and admit their one night stand to Nic, which Kim is decisively against.

Great with major flaws
soft pass
Not really exciting and although the story line was plausable the direction they took it was not. Bunch of misfits for friends. Maybe 1 funny part but the rest was just boring
4.9
A film festival darling of a film
Awkward moments, abandonment issues, love, betrayal, and loyalty all clash in this wonderfully charming dramedy between family and friends. Great performances ground this story for a wonderful ride along the California coast and within the psyches of characters hiding their secrets, trying to love and coming to terms with life's curveballs.
