The Parts You Lose is the kind of film you would expect from a filmmaker like Christopher Cantwell—one with little work to his name, and no previous original feature-length films, but a decent amount of time working in the industry. This slow, sappy drama is competent, functional, generally effective in the ways it intends to be (though not to the degree that it wants to be), and unsurprising. It sticks to formula and doesn't seem to flex much ambition for individuality or creative flair.
