Perfectly serviceable indie

Small slice of life movie about a struggling author that will resonate if you've been feeling bad about your career. The cast includes many from the best music comedy groups: Jemaine Clement, (Flight of the Conchords), Kate Micucci (Garfunkel & Oates) and Jorma Taccone (Lonely Island), plus the Community alumn Ms. Jacobs in the starring role.

Don't come in hoping for big laughs or outrageous situations, because this ain't it.
