This "movie" was plodding and dull. Nothing happens. Interesting plot points are (randomly) introduced to ultimately go nowhere.
Gavin (his character described as "picky" and a "nice guy" by others in the film--traits we don't really see exemplified on-screen) and his friend, Amy (her only character trait being recently broken up with her boyfriend) find a stranger, Carter, passed out in front of Gavin's apartment.
Amy wants him gone, but Gavin invites him to stay through the weekend (as his flight home is Sunday).
Carter lies about losing his cellphone because "reasons," but is discovered since he left said phone turned on, vibration on, and IN HIS BAG.
Amy definitely wants him gone now, but Carter tells Gavin he was supposed to meet his father (who lives in NYC) but he was nervous because he'd never met him before, only talking a few times on the phone.
Gavin let's Carter stay. They end up sleeping in the same bed because it's hot and only Gavin's room has AC.
Gavin's roommate, Farrah, shows up (having been out for a few days with a guy she was dating). She's leaving to hookup with another guy.
Gavin throws a birthday party. A rent check has disappeared, and he accuses Carter. Carter leaves and sleeps on the doorstep to the building his father lives in, but never goes inside. Amy, drunk, goes to the apartment shared with her ex and falls asleep on the couch. Derek, a guy interested in Gavin, stays the night. He wakes up in Gavin's bed and leaves, taking the mix CD he made for Gavin's birthday gift.
The end.
This movie had the feel of a student short film (despite being a mind-numbing 90 minutes). The script was poorly written, the acting mediocre, and the character motivation virtually nonexistent.
