"Charlotte Sometimes" tells the story of four Asian-Americans, two men and two women, and their interrelationships. Yeah, that's pretty much what this somber, plodding, laconic arthouse project is about and it only scratches the surface at that leaving the viewer feeling much like having just eaten an so much Chinese food...unsatisfied. If good stories make good films, "Charlotte Sometimes" is destined to wallow in the mire of the IMDB's bottom 100 list. However, for those who are more interested in execution than content, this brooding, darkish film is an excellent example of squeezing value out of the budget buck. If you're an average schmuck like me, pass on this one. (C)
