Permission
Description
Anna and Will were each other's first: first kiss, first love and first and only relationship. Now, 10 years in, as Will is about to propose, the couple's best friend makes a drunken toast, suggesting that they should sleep around before their inevitable marriage. The joke lands like a lead balloon, but the thought lingers until Anna proposes that they try opening their relationship as a sexual experiment. Together, they venture out of the purely monogamous boundaries of their relationship.

It's a bittersweet note to compliment the messy, endlessly complicated profile Crano constructs around his leads.

... the concept of this indie rom-com, which-like most promises made in haste and on the cheap-doesn't quite deliver in the end.

Stevens and Hall are always interesting to watch. (In fact, you should watch him in "The Guest" and her in "The Awakening," if you want to see two excellent, lesser-known films.)

When Crano digs into the psychological muck with this premise, he's generally far more effective a storyteller than when he relies on cliché.

Ms. Hall ... is the standout, selling Anna's indecision even through some of the script's dubious patches.

Strong performances and an interesting premise combine to make Permission an entertaining adult romance.

You kind of want to slap everybody in Permission, and that's kind of the point.

Permission offers a novel spin on its romantic-comedy premise, exploring the idea that people can do stupid things with the best intentions.
February 07, 2018
[Hall and Stevens'] glowing performances are contained in a wan road-not-taken drama.

... it works best as a tale about what communication errors to avoid when pursuing an open relationship.
February 08, 2018
While it deals with heavy relationship issues including the validity of monogamy, it manages an easy, seemingly effortless humor that seduces the audience while simultaneously breaking filmgoers' hearts.
February 06, 2018
An unconvincing treatment of familiar themes.
