Four roommates struggle with their everyday lives and normal problems. Personality likes and dislikes keep the conversation(s) hopping about and help focus the dialog into some witty repartee through engaging exchanges.
Scotch for breakfast is the morning swill to dampen the pain Elly is feeling. Gayle and Jen join her as they try to understand how to deal with their difficulties as well as a more than perfect roommate, Jessica.
I didn’t see this as a chick flick, though, clearly, it could be. I saw in it the interchange of human drama between friends, the bonding that takes place when friendships are on the line, and where barriers are drawn and crossed.
Enjoyable editing, cinematorgraphy, and presentation.
