“A celluloid merry-go-round concerning the lives of several Los Angeles residents as they meander throughout their lives, nary a moment exists in the film that doesn’t reek of supreme artificiality and strained connections resulting in a laborious, exhausting exercise in kindness porn, belonging instead to the televised sap on solipsistic network channels than the cutting edge cinema it believes itself to be.”
