Overview

The blurred entry pushes the focus to the center, making the questions asked stand out. This movie seems to have only one direction, and that is to go from bad to worse. The three different scenarios that you see are what could have happened based on a chain of events and the choices that Lola makes. She is desperate to help her boyfriend and goes to extreme measures to try and save him.

The movie itself leaves a lot to be desired. There are a lot of scenes that leave you feeling like there is to many things left out. But I guess that is the way that the writer wanted it. Making you think more into the movie that what was being showed. With each “what-if” you throw in your own ideas about what the next steps should be. Adding to the movie without really adding anything.
