Splitsville

"Splitsville is a comedy with a clear objective: to analyze, understand, and laugh at modern relationships. Directed by and starring Michael Angelo Covino (The Climb), and featuring Adria Arjona, Dakota Johnson, and Kyle Marvin, the film follows a couple who separate (Arjona and Marvin) and, soon after, find themselves on a collision course trying to figure out how to move forward—is the divorce for real? Do they really want to separate? What happened to make this happen? These are questions Covino attempts to answer, while crafting a comedy with a touch of silliness to show the absurdities and meaningless paths that modern romances take. Despite some slip-ups and jokes that last longer than they should (like the fight between Marvin and Covino), the film excels at comedy and sees the absurd in many things that are taken for granted. Good for having a good laugh and reflecting on the future of love."
