Review of Lola Versus (2012) by Jason W — 01 Jul 2012

A somewhat humourous though also somewhat despairing film about a young woman played by Greta Gerwig (not her best work, in my opinion) whose character is tested when her fiance dumps her. The explorations of her relationships with friends, parents and men are neither as deep nor as funny as they want to be and while the film has a very promising anti-commercial vibe in the end it is rather disappointing.
