Breaking Up for the Modern Girl is an anthropological satire of heartbreak in the modern age. In a quick and dirty twelve minutes, our heroine experiences the highest highs and lowest lows of young love. Her heart has been quite literally ripped from her chest, and tossed out the window of the 137 bus. Through the assistance of a mysterious auditory guide, Mattie tries to find her way back to neutral following an abandonment to rival all abandonments.
Reviews
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
