'Seeing Other People' can be placed in the zone between the romantic comedy and the TV sitcom. It has some good parts of each genre and some bad parts of each. Overall the good parts seem to slightly exceed the bad ones, without making the film an experience that one cannot forget. The theme of 'open couples' is translated in the life of a young couple before marriage, trying to experience multiple partners before they enter the institution. It could have been a more interesting film, if the authors would have dared more, but they preferred the moralistic path. The moral is that sex without love means nothing, and that the danger in such tentatives is in becoming too involved. Interesting for any one? Not for me, thank you - I found the treatment very conventional and boring. The leading couple are good and the relationship they act is very credible. Julliane Nicholson especially is a name to remember. The rest of the cast are sitcom actors, or they were directed to act like ones.
