It seems that almost every time the one or more characters walks in front of a window, you can see the crew in the reflection, especially car windows.

A clever film, well scripted with creativity and humor. Actors did a great job, particularly lead actress, Katherine H. Also includes a well meshed soundtrack.
Only critique was in the editing and technical issues:. . . some love scenes seemed uncomfortably long even though there was good chemistry. One or two scenes seemed superfluous and at one point the sound of feet shuffling through leaves was louder than the conversation between the actors.
Side Effects is an important film with a strong message . . . I hope lots of people will get the chance to see it.
