OK, I had high hopes for this film. I thought the "He Said, She Said" type story would be cute. There were definite quirky things in the film that I thought would be developed better, but sadly no...
It seemed like they spent time on the first three "chapters", got tired and gave up. Definitely had some promise that did not deliver. So what exactly do I mean? What was up with the blue door? From Max's perspective, when he broke into the apartment the door was blue, but from Elizabeth's perspective it was yellow? What was up with the spoon? Short story at the beginning but it was not really connected that much.
Another thing, most movies that begin with "Two Years Earlier" give you some perspective as to when you are back in the present time. I guess when he was shaving it was assumed that you were somewhere near the beginning of the movie.
I guess that was the real problem I had with the movie. It was more of a lot of disconnected ideas mixed up into one plot. It just seemed like a so much potential, but such a waste. Maybe the director had a lot of great ideas from film school he wanted to apply to his first film.
