User Reviews

A thinking person's groundhog day

This movie is captivating, but more from a psychological stance than in terms of nitty gritty action and is in essence about amends.

Three recovering addicts in a rehab facility re-live the day they are supposed to make amends again and again.

It's not easy to understand what happens in recovery from addictions and this is a psychological portrait of how people deal when faced with confronting their own demons and taking responsibility for their actions.

If you like to think about psychology- you'll enjoy this movie. If you want easy-on-the-eyes- and-and-brains entertainment then maybe give it a miss.
