Broken Windows is a moody piece about a group of annoyed, depressed, sullen, and self-absorbed people. The couple of characters that don’t fit that description are overshadowed by the moodiness and neuroticism of the others. Michael Gross’s character was a small bright spot, a guy trying to make the best of things in celebrating the life of his alcoholic father.

There are plenty of great, but downbeat, movies. This movie is downbeat, and just a drag.
