Where to begin with this one? I grew up in Seattle and when I heard a locally produced film featuring Seattle's lush imagery was available, well... I'm here, right? More 'fartsy' than 'artsy' the writer/director/whoever's responsible decided story elements like actual character development, thematic narratives and, heck, even plot aren't needed. Instead, they offer up this self-indulgent mess of crap dialog, so-so acting and plain 'ol bad editing in lieu of anything relevant, entertaining or insightful.
Basically, if you lapped up "The Brown Bunny", you might enjoy this. But for most viewers it will quickly become an exercise in banal self-righteousness.
On the plus side, yes, the cinematography is quite stunning.
