"Weekenders" provides a taste of satisfaction that has been so often missing in some modern films. Its story is authentic, dancing between the modes of delicately maneuvered fiction and the truths of today's reality. The atmosphere of this film feels intimately genuine and uncontrived - likely touching upon the themes of commitment, desire, and discomfort. The mores of modern dating and human experiences intersect within this film. Consequentially, the way in which this film portrays literary dramatization is nicely cut into fragments of humility and romance. The comedy is subtle and evocative - why; because it feels immersive and true to so many experiences we have had. In life there is cliché; indeed, this a challenging feature to incorporate into film. However, Mainframe Pictures navigates through this well and, merely, without effort (cliché is probably one of the greatest challenges to overcome in modern film). Ultimately, this film deserves a 10/10, not because it fits into a category of "contemporary modern film," but because it does not. It negotiates boundaries most directors won't risk or tackle. Life is awkward and picturesque: perhaps it is flippant and a little wistful sometimes. Let Weekenders give you an experience you can compare to - real sentiment through a multiplicity of lenses.
