There are poignant moments, namely in the film's conclusion, but for much of the run time, the observation grows stale as we struggle to connect to the performances on screen.

Rated: 2/4

Just because the jokes about micro-dosing, Crossfit- and social media-obsessive city folk are a little obvious doesn’t mean they won’t resonate with any townie aching for the before-days.

Rated: 3/5

A lovely ending makes up for the filmmakers' giving this triangle one blunt side.

The characters and emotion build so smoothly over the course of the movie. The subtle and understated tone amplified how I felt about what was happening on screen, and I found myself deeply relating to the characters' experiences. Plus, seeing the beauty of Jackson Hole, WY is an always-needed reminder to get into nature more often.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The characters were so real and relatable. Beautifully shot film. Charming and subtle humor throughout kept me laughing. Just a refreshing pee(a)k into the genuine connection between two strangers.
