Wobble Palace (2018)
4/10
Mediocre film of Gen Z dating stereotypes and highly unlikable characters
10 October 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I saw this film when it released at a local small theatre in my area and promptly forgot about it until it popped in my head for some reason over the past week. I watched a bit of it to refresh my memory and it still is a pretty poor film with not much reason to watch it in 2018, let alone 2023.

There are some parts that are ok; I laughed at the Windows XP curtains and there was the really introspective part at the end where a young successful artist discusses the dozen or so young artists asleep on their floor. They talk about how there is so little way for anyone to be successful in this field and are essentially telling the co-main protagonist that they are woefully ignorant for trying to follow the quirky California artist arch-type.

Besides those, the main two characters just suck. Both are incredibly selfish and unlikable and I really do not understand the point of this movie. The "twist" at the end where both characters embrace while crying and say how much they want to break up with each other...get out of here.

4/10 - Largely forgettable and at times aggressively unlikable.
