Maguire (Aaron Paul) is a nice-looking, hip rocker whose band did not make it and who lost his girlfriend.\u00a0 People with more serious problems than this quartet have lived happy lives.\u00a0 These people, however, will have to learn to overcome their separate neuroses by hanging out together for six weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The story starts in London on New Year\u2019s Eve.\u00a0 Martin Sharp climbs to Topper Tower with the aim of throwing himself over, a long way down.\u00a0 Sweating and thinking, he is interrupted by a woman, Maureen, who demonstrates her London-style politeness by asking him to do the deed so she can take her turn.\u00a0 When J.J. and Jess show up on the roof\u2014the former with no justifiable reason for suicide except teen rebellion, the latter simply because he lost his band and his girl\u2014they make a pact to abstain for six weeks, Valentine\u2019s Day, and hang out with one another to make sure the agreement is carried out.<\/p>\n<p>The press gets the word, particularly because of Martin\u2019s fame or notoriety, which gives Jess the chance to make up a story about being saved by a naked angel who looks like Matt Damon (ho ho ho).\u00a0 Jess\u2019s politician father (Sam Neill) makes a few scenes adding to the dull dialogue in a movie that evokes the saying that misery loves company but updated that proverb by adding that when miserable people get together, they can cure one another. In other words, four negatives make a positive.\u00a0 A quick vacation in Majorca is all that\u2019s needed to firm up the group\u2019s bond and to give everyone the will to live.\u00a0 Welcome, Hallmark Hall of Fame. Exit, a credible story with either sufficient gags or understandably melodramatic moments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unrated. 96 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 2014 by Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Story \u2013 D<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Acting \u2013 C<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical \u2013 B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall \u2013 C-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Long-Way-Down.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Long-Way-Down.jpg\" alt=\"A Long Way Down\" width=\"600\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-144324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Long-Way-Down.jpg 612w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Long-Way-Down-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/A-Long-Way-Down-160x100.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A LONG WAY DOWN Magnolia Pictures Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten.
