Only thing missing is Tommy and a football. Creakiest floors in the history of film. Shakiest still shots too. Good for an eye rolling laugh or two.

I got no words.. Lack of quality on all stages, absurd scenes and moments. He got out to get painkillers for his stomach in the middle of the night after this traumatic party. I recommend every one too see this movie, the next one after this might be the best film of your life.

I absolutely love this film! It's so cool how it showcases different peoples stories and how all of the love triangles weave together so seamlessly. I love how each couples story is broken up into its own act. That was so clever! I also love how there is so much humanity to each couples situation. I particularly love the 'farewells' chapter! The film is so fast paced and captivating. The characters are interesting too and relatable. This could totally be turned into a tv series. I'm really excited to see what else this director comes out with!

Watch this film if you miss all those endless overnight parties that we took for granted pre-pandemic, those chilly winter nights spent tripping over champagne glasses and broken bottles and all the life in the world seems to only exist within the confines of your college bedroom. It reminded me of the night I spent before graduation fighting my eyelids as though tomorrow wouldn't come and I wouldn't have to graduate if I didn't go to bed. Props to the editor for deftly juggling 6 major characters and keeping the timeline of the night clear despite the looping and winding narrative.

Director: Julian Carlo Santos and Writers: Kevin Nittolo, Julian Carlo Santos have offered up a movie who's plot is greater than the sum of its parts. The setting is one Christmas party in which something happens early on. Then the story is divided into three parts with each part giving the viewer a closer look at whats happening behind the main scene at this party! As the saying goes - still waters run deep! I enjoyed this movie but found the characterizations of the party participants to be a bit unbelievable. And two of the main characters are way too obvious to be "just friends".

Just a typical party set around Christmas time. This is very dialog driven and sometimes very entertaining but other times making you wonder whats going on. I think the ending saved.

This film is so real and authentic. I was truly captivated. I particularly enjoyed Martin Drop's performance as Ed. A beautifully written story.

I really enjoyed this film - a first time feature-length film from the director. Excellent casting (Charlie, Caroline, and Jun in particular), soundtrack, and filming. It pulled me in and connected me with the characters from the start, and the non-linear film approach to the scenes gave the characters and storyline depth and interest. Well done!
