Review:
“Director-writer Izidore K. Musallam fills the film with inconsequential chat, and some musings on love that feel beside the point since all the characters are uniquely unloveable. It avoids anything like action […] The young men are interchangeable planks in a building full of stacks of wood, while the women are at least distinguishable – one blonde, the other dark.” The Kim Newman Web Site
