Am I getting this movie right? Are we supposed to feel sorry for the main chick because she got fired for stealing four bottles of vodka from work? Don't get me wrong, I'm almost always on the side of someone who just came into possession of four bottles of vodka, but that is a pretty legitimate reason to fire somebody. Her bad luck continues when she misses her train, but then she... doesn't miss her train? What the fuck? Oh no, I get it- this is one of those goddamned movies where we see two different ways that somebody's day could have played out. Christ I hate this shit. Let me guess- in one scenario she ends up happy and in the other one she ends up in abject misery. Seriously, since the vast majority of folks are pretty miserable - or at the very least dissatisfied - most of the time, what, exactly, are movies like this trying to tell us? That your life would have been wonderful if only you'd taken Main Street instead of Pine, or if you'd left work five minutes earlier on Tuesday? That's comforting, to just assume that everyone's shitty life is the end result of a series of insignificant, apparently meaningless choices, all of which they somehow managed to get completely wrong anyway. Fuck you, movies using this gimmick. The worst though is when they show both choices ultimately leading to the same end. What the hell are we supposed to take away from that? Besides the fact that the entire movie didn't matter and watching it was a complete waste of time, I mean? This flick doesn't pull that shit at least, but it's still utterly pointless, especially seeing as one of the two alternatives ends with the main chick dying in a totally random fashion because she doesn't know not to stand in the middle of the street. Then again, maybe that is the point: make whatever other choices you want, just don't stand in the middle of the goddamned street.
