"it's time we decide"

Pretty interesting movie that netflix suggested for me i gave it a try and was pretty satisfied with what i saw.  The story starts with a young couple standing on the Brooklyn Bridge figuring out their Fourth of July plans.  They flip a coin to make the decision in then you watch the consequences of the coin flip.  it is a unique film in the fact that you are watching both sides of the coin play out for the next two hours.  Here is the trailer .  This is a smart concept because often times, especially with indie films we end up with adventure movies lacking in depth of character.  This film gives us a chance to see a tense adventure (admittedly a little far-fetched, but let it go) as well as some real character development in a slightly more mundane, but heartfelt in a second path of the couple.  Some of the paradise/purgatory symbolism is really nice as well.
i am a pretty big fan of Joseph Gordon Levitt, not only do i think he does really good work, but i think he is really smart about the projects that he gets involved with.  The chemistry between him and Lynn Collins is pretty great in my opinion.

i also enjoyed this movie because i adore New York City, and it really makes you feel close to the city, not only through it's cinematography, but also through nuances that come from journeying through the city.  i.e. sitting on the steps of union square, or getting really annoyed when your metro-card fails to swipe at a particularly bad time.  This movie takes care of the details pretty well.  so yeah.
this one is a Netflix instant.

also.  Just because i can, the brooklyn bridge and the george washington bridge play central roles in this. i just so happened to walk the brooklyn bridge for the first time a few weeks ago while looking for an apartment... so i'm shouting out to myself.  But, i figure no one reads this anyway so who am i gonna offend?
