I was unsure what to expect going in. Based on the trailer. Thought it could be on the sillier side like A Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy or more somber like Seeking a Friend for the End of the World. In the end it was neither and it's all the better for it. It's reminiscent of peak indie films of the early 2000s where production quality is solid and the story is a little quirkier than a major studio would know how to market. Each character has an arc, the film resolves in a satisfying way, and the conflicts and challenges the characters face feel real and earned. The two leads bring genuine performances that have heart and pathos and yearning (played by real life couple Adam and Megan Hughes Rini). This comes together as more than the sum of its parts.
