Disconnect (2012) Movie Review

Disconnect (2012)

The movie stood up to its name, written by Andrew Stern and directed by academy award nominee Henry Alex Rubin. 

Disconnect is modern day drama movie showcased the disconnect in real life whether it is between a Father & Son, Husband & Wife, Two individuals. I recall my school English literature story named "Generation Gap". I felt like repeating the story again.

There are 4 to 5 stories running simultaneously in the movies but the content is to the point and the movie justifies the name. Its a multi starer, neatly presented the theme of the story.

It's not a happy ending though.. no more spoiler.
