| Cora Bora and Taco |
Cora Bora is apparently a musician, although her performance at an open mic displays little sign of talent. From there, we see that — for abundantly clear good reasons — no one likes her. A couple of characters take pity on her, but she is lost in her own little universe of delusion, deciding on a whim to return from Los Angeles to her home town of Portland in the hopes of resolidifying her “open relationship” with the girlfriend she left behind in Portland.
The problem is, Cora is just annoying, not funny. There is a little bit of partial redemption at the very end, but it was definitely not worth the wait. I can’t fault Megan Stalter (Cora), who seems to have played the character as written and directed, but it was a story not worth telling. Enthusiastically NOT RECOMMENDED. I would rather watch paint dry than sit through this film a second time.
