Review of Dance Party, USA (2006) by Jill H — 11 Aug 2008
As part of the so called mumblecore movement, this film like Funny Ha Ha is improvised and goes for reality over entertainment, which isn't always a good thing. The characters are interesting enough, though often the conversations seem flat and uninspired.
A reflection of life itself but not an interesting one. At 65 minutes it is short and very sweet with a touching ending. The acting is okay, having the awkward relationships means awkward performances are fully acceptable.
I'm not a fan of the digital look here, looks too much like a home movie. A nice little film, with some dark themes.
