All Between Us (2018)

All Between Us: Directed by Jamie Jones. With Denyce Lawton, Brian Hooks, Tiffany Haddish, Christian Levatino. As a newly engaged couple gathers family and friends together to make an announcement, what begins as a celebration turns into disaster as secrets surface. One night, one mistake, one dinner unravels the lives of four people forever.

“The movie starts off with a bar scene with a woman drinking water. Guy approaches her, trying to crack a joke but she shuts him down cold. Spoiler alert: This is the best part of the movie. Soon they are laughing, and you fast forward to their gorgoeous loft, where they are «preparing» for the dinner party.nRay spends a lot of time fluffing up pillows and trying to make everyrhing perfect for his first encounter with the in-laws (feel free to fast-forward here). Ironically, the loft is already perfect with food conviently «cooking» on the stove, awaiting the guests, in a spotless kitchen. Clara awaits her best friend, Mishawn, to come «help out», yet all she does is prepare the lettuce for a salad. The movie is unrealistic from the minute it begins. The acting is bad and only gets worse with the boring and reduntant storyline including characters that are trying too hard. This movie is beyond flawed.”
