The feeling I got from this film was this: you can't hide from or outrun your problems... eventually, you must face them.
The main character of this film seems to have done OK for himself by keeping to himself and just accepting that people wear him down or pick on him. He has an OK house and an OK job... things seem OK. He has agreed to just live a life of being bullied, as if that's a reality some people just accept.
When his past literally runs into him and takes him on a date, he's forced to remember how he became such a passive loser.
I like how this story was put together.
My main complaint is that his "dark side" that keeps trashing things for him could have been better orchestrated. Also, the main actor never gave me the impression that he had found any real strength at the end of the film, which was the implication in the story.
Over all, I thought this film was good film and worth watching. Kudos to the Director Brian Cwikla. This was his first feature and those always seem to be the hardest.
