Reset Movie Review By MDBReviews

The thought is a touch better than the execution of "Reset," a hazy and unique story of a man who over and again comes back to the place where he grew up with the proposition of dodging anybody he once knew.

"Have you ever pondered about the individual you ought to have been?" Floyd, who as of late turned 30, says amid one of the heap inside monologs he conveys while driving forward and backward on weekends to a unidentified city, two hours from his current home.

His plan is to reinvent himself by experiencing his old hometown from other angles — hanging out in bars different from the ones he used to frequent; evading his parents and his sister, who live nearby; and sleeping with prostitutes rather than pursuing a relationship with any of the willing women he meets while drinking.


Written and directed by Paul Bojack, “Reset” is primarily a collection of side stories and elliptical sketches broken up by chapter titles and sporadic bursts of anxiety and humor. There’s no overriding plot here, and there’s so much talk on cellphones that the devices should get top billing for all the time they spend onscreen.

Still, the fragmented and existential atmosphere, reminiscent of a Paul Auster novel, is an interesting reward for sticking with the tale. Edward Deraney, as Floyd, is credible enough as a man vexed by the path his life is taking. His frustration is neatly summed up at the end: “There’s no way to ever fully break from your family and your past,” he says in a voice-over, then adds, “But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t.
