Millennium Bugs

About This Movie

Millennium Bugs is an interesting blend of comedy and drama, set during that pivotal last week of 1999, which really captures a certain pre-Y2K anxiety. The vibe is raw, almost like you’re peering into a slice of life that’s both chaotic and poignant. Kelly's struggle with her past and substance abuse feels genuine, and the pacing really mirrors her emotional rollercoaster—some scenes hit hard while others are lighter, almost whimsical. The film’s atmosphere is enhanced by its practical effects and the way it captures that late '90s aesthetic. Performances, especially from the leads, are solid; they infuse their characters with a sense of realness that makes you sit up and take notice. It’s not your typical coming-of-age story, which gives it a distinctive edge.
