Director: Julian Carlo Santos and Writers: Kevin Nittolo, Julian Carlo Santos have offered up a movie who's plot is greater than the sum of its parts.
The setting is one Christmas party in which something happens early on. Then the story is divided into three parts with each part giving the viewer a closer look at whats happening behind the main scene at this party! As the saying goes - still waters run deep!
I enjoyed this movie but found the characterizations of the party participants to be a bit unbelievable. And two of the main characters are way too obvious to be "just friends".

Good idea
Has some moments
Just a typical party set around Christmas time. This is very dialog driven and sometimes very entertaining but other times making you wonder whats going on. I think the ending saved.
Twice in 2 days
This film took me by surprise. It draws one into the worlds of the 6 main characters and their intertwining stories. Not really sure what it was about it that captivated me, I watched it again the following day. The humour and complexities became more evident on a second viewing. Many of the characters were charming despite their flaws. This was rendered possible by some wonderful performances and clever direction. I found myself interested in their approaches to decisions whilst sometimes laughing and genuinely moved, especially by certain scenes in which so much is conveyed by what is left unsaid.
