About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like long, talky ensemble dramas where friendship and guilt simmer alongside humor, similar to It’s Only the End of the World or The Spanish Apartment; Not for you if you want a fast plot or easy-to-like characters.
Pros: natural performances; funny and moving moments; rich group dynamics | Cons: very long runtime; meandering middle stretch; some unlikeable characters
