The lives of four twenty-somethings intertwine over the course of one Friday night house party in this inventive and hilarious coming-of-age comedy. August, a quirky recent college grad struggling to find her footing in a new town discovers her roommate and only friend has different plans for the future that don't include her. Damien and Betsy, a cute couple returning to Austin, bump into an old friend of Betsy's who invites them out to the party upending Damien's secret plan to propose. Caleb, a directionless musician whose life unravels after letting go of the love of his life suddenly gets a second chance when he runs into her at the party. Each character attempts to navigate the often difficult and hilarious problems that come with growing up in the modern world.

3.5/5

The college archetypes get a bit on-the-nose, and some lingering underwater scenes feel jammed in to match other coming-of-agers. But ultimately, the imperfections just feel cute.

3/5

A freeform comedy about a group of interconnected people in their early 20s, this movie coasts on its energetic pace and performances rather than narrative momentum.

2/5

The promise of an all-hands-on-deck party carries the expectation of hours of wild fun, but, just like in real life, is likely to end in disappointment.

...The Get Together, [is] a movie about a wild party with a streak of genuine melancholy and thoughtfulness at its center.

This empathetic if slender take on the post-college doldrums doesn't outstay its welcome.

B-

Has the advantage of being short, keeping the picture on its feet, but Bakke shows some strain trying to turn a short film experience into a feature-length psychological study.
