A nice and promising first effort., 6 October 2001
3/10
Author: angora sweater from Vancouver BC, Canada

As an independently-made first feature, "Come Together" is a nice movie with some moments of charm and shows much promise from those involved. Competent video photography and a workable score help give the production a professional feel.

The opening title sequence is unnecessarily complicated. A show-off flourish of image manipulation and graphics distracts from the setup of the story. This attention grabbing stunt seems out of place against the rest of the movie which is shown at a more relaxed and intimate level.

"Come Together" follows Ewan as he prepares to attend the wedding of an ex-girlfriend he is still in love with. Neither he nor the bride and groom seem keen on his attendance but Ewan explains he is looking for closure by attending. The first 20 minutes of the movie are spent establishing Ewan as a bit of a loser and the remaining hour does little to try and discourage this impression. Aside from a few charming moments and a tenderly handled climax, it is mostly a mundane and slow march for Ewan (and the audience) toward the big event that will hopefully provide closure.
