I love this movie so much
i must have seen a different film!!
Expected more
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
I feel the small penis situation in this movie was awful, the penises looked completely fake, I'm not sure how the penis size issue was meant to come across, it was very Americanised.
Two couples (Jason Schwartzman and Judith Godrèche / Adam Scott and Taylor Schilling from "Orange Is the New Black") make a playdate which grows into something more than sipping wine and watching the children play together.Found this little indie thing in Netflix, watched it to see Scott and Schwartzman who have a habit of appearing in comedies that I like (in addition to many generic movies but whatever, I like those dudes)."The Overnight" is not really a drama nor comedy but a tale of relationships: what makes us get together and stay together.Despite the promising topic and pretty cool promos, It does not really go anywhere. There's no suspense of any kind (surely a killing blow to any movie about relationships) and the approach is too improvisational (a lot of dialogue, mostly just talk-talk-talk without any memorable lines or highlights).But hey, I saw my dudes and it's over quickly, in 83 minutes.Exec produced by the Duplass brothers which gives you strong hint about what to expect from the general vibe.Written and directed by one Patrick Brice, whose only previous movie was horror "Creep". Whatever this means.
I was surprised to see how low the score was for this movie. I would've thought the people who would have actually seen it would have been the kind to like it. There's a lot of story packed into this movie for being under 90 minutes. It's honest, and never tries to be too much. The drama is authentic and relatable. The humor is in the right places at the right times. Jason Schwarzman is at his usual greatness.
Alex (Adam Scott) and Emily (Taylor Schilling) move to L.A. with their son R.J. One day at the park, R.J. befriends Max. Max's father Kurt (Jason Schwartzman) invites them over for a visit. The adults spend time together that night and strange things start bubbling up. Kurt has a hobby of painting butt-holes. Charlotte (Judith Godrèche) acts in milk-pumping videos. Kurt goes skinny dipping and he's revealed to have a giant dick. Alex is immediately taken back with insecurity about his micro dick.I wouldn't call it funny. It's a little uncomfortable but mostly endearingly weird. I get a feeling that Scott and Schwartzman should be a lot more wacky or a lot more awkward. The movie sets up a lot of weirdness but it's a little too nice about it. The naked dancing is great. It's also a little short which gives off a feeling of a need for more material.
