Splitsville - Comedy - Good to Watch

Splitsville - Comedy - Good to Watch

• Directed By: Michael Angelo Covino
• In Theaters: Aug 22, 2025

The film was a comedy. It was about people. They loved each other. Then they did not.

Michael Angelo Covino and Kyle Marvin made the film. They made another film before. It was called “The Climb.” It was also about friends and women and not knowing what to do. This new one starts with a car crash. A man and his wife are driving. She is a life coach. She wants new experiences. She says she wants to get a divorce. They get out and look at the car. The car is broken. The woman is not.

The man, Carey, walks a long way to his friend’s house. The friend is Paul. Paul has a wife named Julie and a young son. Paul and Julie have a new way of living. It is called an open marriage. They can sleep with other people. They say this. They say Julie can even sleep with Carey.

It is a game. A game with no rules. It is about lies. Everyone is lying to themselves. The film is a comedy. But it is not a comedy about being happy. It is a comedy about being lost. The jokes are in what they do. Not what they say. The film is like an old film. One that Cary Grant might have been in. But he would not have understood the New Balance shoes. Or the man who can read minds.

Dakota Johnson is in the film. She is good. She watches the men. The men are like boys. They mess things up. She does not. She is an anchor. A thing that stays still while the ship moves.

The film has many turns. It can get tiring. But the turns go in a circle. They end where they began. Everyone is where they started. Lying to themselves. That is how the film ends. It runs for 100 minutes. It is rated R. It is a film about the things men and women do when they are lost. It is not a bad film. It is a true film. True in its own way.
