Wallace and Chantry meet at a party. Due to current relationships and in spite of their obvious attraction for one another, they each decide that they will just be friends.
I really wanted to like this. I did. But I didn't. I couldn't. I can't. I won't. This is such a poorly written "love" story. I can't put my finger on it exactly. I am not clear if it is the unlikeable characters, the forced dialogue, the uninteresting story, the cast, or just the entire package, but I found myself annoyed right from the start and then just horrifically bugged by the end.
As a fan of the iconic When Harry met Sally, I really thought that this might be along those lines, perhaps with a dark modern twist. No, not even up to par. It is more like a trite attempt at brightening Annie Hall. I can't reiterate enough how fake and staged the discourse was, not to mention that when it was all said and done, I not only didn't care about the characters and what happened to them, but I was bored by their plight in general.

I don't.
