| The movie as a whole feels rushed, bursting at the seams with seemingly unnecessary subplots and tangential characters. |
| Some of the scenes are alternate takes of scenes involving subplots that were abandoned but containing important dialogue that had to be reshot. |
| One of the subplots involves her Irish ex-boyfriend, who has an accent that mixes Glasgow with Liverpool in a mid-Atlantic brew. |
| The range of characters results in a number of subplots that interweave to create a tangled story arc. |
| Unfortunately, an unsubtle ham-fisted approach is taken and subplots waltz in and out without any real relevance to the main story. |
| And the unique twists in the overlapping subplots demand that critics like myself keep our fat yaps shut and give away as little as possible. |
