    Not a fairytale but life

    I guess this film is about real life and real people. How messed up we are, and relationships, how extremely complicated is everything. The actors did an amazing job, since all dialogues were improvised, no written script. The movie has a certain atmosphere that catches you where music and cinematography are in harmony, and you'll have a great deal to think about way after "the end".

    Good portrait of the downsides of hookup culture

    I enjoyed this film, and its honest look at the downsides of hook up culture. Perhaps Mr. Doremus's best film since the excellent "Like Crazy". Good acting among the three leads. Excellent soundtrack. More young people should see this film. Makes for a cautionary tale for those navigating the dating scene today, flitting from partner to partner.

    A Wattpad fanfiction come to life

    If you are looking for an intellectual movie, skip this one. This is a movie about a 'lost' girl 'finding' herself. She has two incredibly attractive men to choose from and on goes the story. This movie is very reminiscent of wattpad fanfictions I used to read as a teen. I honestly saw this movie for Sebastian Stan and his performance was good. Woodley, as ever, has the emotional range of a cucumber. The soundtrack of the movie, however, is good. If you are bored and looking for a predictable romance movie that does not require a lot of thinking, this is for you.

    Just wanders around and never quite makes its point

    The performances are generally fine, but 'Endings, Beginnings' wanders around with its "lost girl finding herself" story and never quite makes its point. Aimless. And please... Drake Doremus really needs to chill out with those mid-sentence jump-cuts.

    Could have been a music video

    "Endings, Beginnings" is a spare story of a woman, Daphne, who appears to have no career or job, and seems adrift in her personal life after a break-up. She does a lot of party- and club-hopping in LA, and meets two hot dudes who happen to be close friends. This triangle gets messy when she falls into a sexual relationship with both of them. One is the classic bad boy who owes people money, smokes pot, but is great in bed. The other is a more serious academic and writer who offers the prospect of a deeper relationship, but she seems to find him less "exciting." Even though he's very cool and good-looking!

    The shaky camera work, abrupt cuts, dreamy lighting and lack of dialogue or structured plot make this seem like a music video more than a feature film. Stan and Woodley have some raunchy sex scenes, and you can see why she finds him irresistible, but this is fairly shallow fare due to the direction and writing.
