MildlyEntertainedThankYouMorePlotPlease.
Released: 2010
Genre(s): Drama, Comedy, Romance
"HappyThankYouMorePlease" is a surprisingly gentle foray into the indie movie scene, sticking to slow, plodding plotlines, and somewhat contrived, forced "feel good" situations. However, it also doesn't lack genuinely endearing moments - you feel for the flawed main characters and want them to succeed, cringing during their inevitable falls from grace, and silently cheering as they make changes for the better. However, the script itself is somewhat weak, and drains any sense of direction this film could potentially benefit from. The acting is solid, and the actors do a great job trying to add momentum to the story, but ultimately, the characters only work within the limited microcosm the plot lays out for them - beyond that, things may feel a little boring. Still worth a view, as the acting alone is worth the ticket price.
