What starts out as a well-done but typical "love triangle" tale turns into a smart, multilayered demonstration of the age-old motto "appearances can be deceiving". It's a film that repeatedly pulls the rug out from under your feet, yet all the pieces of the well-put-together puzzle fit, and all the clues are there. The use of video camera shots may seem excessive at first, but eventually you'll find out it was justified; at the end there are none of the "loose ends" that you usually find in this type of movie - all the questions are answered. "Dot The I" is an impressively self-assured feature-length writing and directing debut for Matthew Parkhill, who is further assisted by a well-selected trio of protagonists. *** out of 4.
