“Marshall,” or “Marsh” as his friend Houston Rhines calls him, shares a home with his boyfriend, “Gabe” (Noah Schuffman), but their relationship has fallen into a predictable routine. There's a lack of intimacy, an excess of work, and their sense of purpose seems diminished. One evening while online, Marsh discovers a website that promises to revitalize his stagnant life. He registers, and soon Gabe is aware of his feelings, choosing to move in with mutual friends as a result. Unbeknownst to Marsh, this application begins controlling various aspects of his existence, arranging dates for him, organizing social gatherings, and generally interfering while he attempts to balance the demands of his job with his clear desire to reconcile with Gabe. There isn’t much suspense or particularly strong acting or writing throughout the story's progression. However, it delivers a compelling commentary for those who are skeptical about how reliant people have become on computers and the internet in their everyday routines. We schedule appointments and end relationships through text messages; we alter our relationship statuses as if flipping pages of a calendar, and when effort is required to rekindle a connection, we often retreat into the digital world. The film can be amusing at times, particularly in portraying Marsh’s helplessness and Gabe's inclination toward easy solutions rather than attempting to resolve what even someone with limited perception could recognize as their shared desire. While familiar territory, containing some gay stereotypes and lacking originality, it may still connect with viewers who enjoy shows like “Falcon Crest.”
