Resonant, Slow, Thought-provoking, Disappointing, Indulgent

See it if you like theater and dinner parties with socializing with a lot of "characters"

Don't see it if you don't enjoy cliched, slow, "verbal diarrhea" exposition, and have an urge to run away from a dinner party

Clever, Entertaining, Great acting, Relevant, Thought-provoking

See it if You agree that people get wrapped up in their own world and fail to connect with the rest of the humanity. We know this, but it's a reminder

Don't see it if You think that you already care enough about what's going on in the world or if you're not up for a drama with moments of comedy interlaced.

Entertaining, Funny, Great acting, Great writing, Relevant

See it if You are a fan of Alan Ayckbourn and/or Mike Leigh. You like slice of life dramas. It’squite realistic, literally a British kitchen sink play

Don't see it if You can’t deal with heavy British accents. You are looking for something unusual or unbelievable. Realism is a theme throughout.
