Fred N Can you call a movie a comedy if there are no funny moments? When it was shown in a theater, did anyone laugh at any line? Nothing dramatic here, either. An hour and a half of ennui. Even the moments of faint BDSM have no joy or tension. EIther I or the director, writer, and cast needed to up the dose on their meds for this to be worth it. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/14/24 Full Review Roy H This movie manages to be funny and uncomfortable at the same time I really liked it. The film seemed real, not fulfilling idealized images of beauty, style and relationships. Ann is fully herself not conforming to society's expectations, she is outspoken, speaks her truth, and seems indifferent to what others think she should be doing with her life. I interpreted her as neurodivergent, having relationships on her terms, and living life in a way that works for her. Unlike other characters, she seems unconcerned with how her way of living may detrimentally influence her future; I would expect/hope this character would have the same outlook on life through her elder years. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Matthew R oh Hollywood, so effing weird. Not really sure what the message was in this one. The acting was decent, just the plot, very artsy for those into artsy movies. There was no, uhem, climax, not really anything. I'm sure it was meant to tell me something, no im not sure of that, i'm assuming, but whatever it was i was supposed to take away from this film went right over my head. It did have it's humorous moments for those who like deadpan. The mom did remind me of my mom, so there's that. Anyway, i guess go ahead and watch it, maybe you'll get it. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Sam N Drenched in discomfort and devoid of joy, “The Feeling That the Time for Doing Something Has Passed” marks the debut of Joanna Arnow as writer, director, and star. In it, we follow Ann, whose days are spent enduring a domineering boss and whose nights are dedicated to being submissive to various partners. The film brilliantly juxtaposes Ann’s drab public life with her humiliating private escapades, underscoring the perpetual cycle of awkwardness and inertia she’s stuck in. Arnow critiques the universal apathy Ann encounters, making viewers wonder why Ann doesn’t just, you know, try a little harder to jazz up her life. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review John H This movie has some of the qualities of American Psycho in that the characters live in this rarefied atmosphere of under-reaction to peak experience and over reaction to the inconsequential. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/28/24 Full Review K D I have not written very many reviews, but I chose to write this because I was literally bored to death. I am not being mean, as I always want to give art a fair review and I feel the obligation to watch shows to the end (even when it's painful, as this one was so much so)! The people in charge of this made it so very cringe worthy, and for the price of $7.55, I seriously feel like I have been robbed.
