Review of LOL (2012) by Frances B — 15 Dec 2008

No. just no. there was a point in making this movie: swanberg attempts to explore how communication technology affects (prevents) real-life communication. but the camera work was atrocious and it seems like he ignored so many aspects of film that could've helped him prove his point.

ack! sucks though, because I wanted to like it. I enjoyed the bits of columbia culture presented in chris and greta's relationship (blue java, 1 train, citibank/columbia card...) but no amount of hand closeups can save this film.
