Thoughts
It was funny and cute, but not as great as I expected.
The film had the total vibe of an indie movie, with colorful characters doing offbeat stuff while the film makers used interesting soundtracks and a small budget. What I liked best was the individual scenes. There were plenty of great moments, usually involving the minor characters. The scenes involving children characters was very funny and smartly-written, all the sexual themes involving them was a bit creepy. This creepiness would get in the way of the weird, meet-cute main plot. Interesting that the adults were child-like, while the children were doing adult things.
Bottom line, it was a quirky flick with some great moments, but overrated.
What I would change
Done more with the central story and toned down the creepiness of the subplots.
