Review of That's Not Us

That's Not Us (2015)
8/10
Group goes on vacation... with issues.
2 March 2018
Three couples are on a beach vacation get-away, and right from the start, we see that there are issues to be worked out. The husband of the straight couple feels that he has to do "work related stuff", and the wife is not happy about that. The lesbians are having "bedroom" issues, and the gay boys appears to have "mom" issues and communication issues. and that's just the first 15 minutes. I really dug how the mixed group just got along together. things get all goofy. The central conflict. The couples all have things to work out. Most of it was quite predictable, but well done and authentic. Some fun and funny lines, lots of yelling. Normal people stuff. Good film. Sort of a "Big Chill" with some LGBT folks. Directed by William Sullivan. Written by Sullivan and Derek Dodge. Interesting that although much of the cast has a good solid resume, Rysdahl is the only one with a photo attached, as of today. I assume this was a hit at film festivals, but only 182 votes so far. Hope more people see this, now that this is showing on netflix.
