Incredible class A acting. The film being done in one take is perfect, it captures the atmosphere and world of the restaurant like no other. I feel the low ratings are watchers used to squeaky Hollywood clichés that need an explosion to keep their attention. This film is not Hollywood, and it is amazing for it.

No where near long enough for such a huge topic it felt closer to a quick awareness video which is a shame. Some beautiful filming, but not enough of the participants. My heart sobbed for the mother, an inspiration cut into less than ten minutes was a disservice. If you want to learn about the horrors of homelessness in America I recommend watching SoftWhiteUnderbelly on YouTube. Full interviews on the people in life's harshest environment and their stories.

It had promise. A decent basis with an interesting true story made too complicated by swimming through extra parts. It would have been better to focus everything on anna as anna does by her behaviour. When the journalist is excruciating to watch I did not care she was pregnant, or about her career, or her past, or relationship. The over acting was exhausting. Alot of the script other than Anna's was predicable, lazy and copy and paste from tropes. There was a base for something great here, but they missed the mark by trying too hard in all the wrong places.

I couldn't even get to the middle of the film because the representation of girls was offensive. We are not stupid, needy, no dignity or naive. The movie did a good job at showing the girls how those characters see them, faceless, no personality, no standards, dumb, toys. I had enough when the line came up along the lines of an app that "will lift her out of the bed as soon as I'm done with her". This is making this behaviour towards girls glamorous, easy, and cool. Even if the film had a moral ending that I didnt see, the beginning is so offensive that it wouldn't of made up for it. Not to mention, the scenes and script were very predictable. *side note, women can want, enjoy and have meaningless sex if they choose to. You don't have to manipulate them and glamourise a playboy character to do so.
