    Visually sumptuous and with a real literary beauty in both its narrative structure and dialogue.

    Here, to its detriment, never builds its ideas into a cohesive vision. The screenplay by Mr. King and Dani Valent too often wanders off into poetic vagueness. But visually, Here, filmed by Lol Crowley, is still a stunner. Flawed as it is, I admire it immensely.

    Whether the role is small or large, the acting across the board is utterly convincing.

    The dreamy, feverish beauty of these sequences just barely balances out the pretension of the exposition. The film falters the further it drifts from that overheated, slightly delusional mood; the more precisely it's scripted, the less it feels true.

  1. The problem with
  2. First let me say that I don't mind slow-paced movies and little dialogue. But if there are only few words said, they better say something. This movie was boring, I couldn't wait for it to end. The titul is actually very fitting. "Here" or rather "there" with the main characters all day long watching them doing nothing much, hearing them saying nothing worth remembering... It felt like a student project... Expand
