Ahora Estamos Solos

Peter Dinklage is a national treasure. I became a fan of his through his performance in Game of Thrones and I've really come to enjoy his acting. He is the reason that I Think We're Alone Now is decent and worth a watch. I am a fan of post-apocalyptic stories in general so that contributed to my enjoyment.

However, this movie does have some flaws. The plot is slow moving, has weird abrupt tonal changes, unanswered question/plot holes and the final act is just weird. They shoehorn in a side plot that becomes a huge part of the ending and it just felt off to me. Plus I can't articulate just why, but I think the title of this movie is stupid. I guess it just doesn't fit in with the actual story, plus it makes everyone think of that song of the same name.

Recommended to fans of post-apocalyptic movies who enjoy strong acting. Not recommended to watchers looking for action or adventure movies.

I was able to see a sneak preview of I Think We're Alone Now at "The Female Gaze" Film Festival in NYC. I had high expectations for the cinematography in this movie by Reed Morano and they exceeded all of them. The lighting was gorgeous and the set design was spot on.

While there isn't a lot of action or answers that one might be looking for in a post apocalyptic flick, you get all the story telling you need out of the nuanced performances by Peter Dinklage and Elle Fanning who share an undeniable chemistry.

Cinematography: top! Actors: top Music: loved it!

Story: ???

The trouble with that movie is easy explained - top cast and top acting (Peter Dinklage, Elle Fanning) vs. a slow story with a badly executed "twist".

All in all watchable but with that scenario and those fine actors I Think We're Alone Now had the potential to be a new classic on the post-apocalyptic genre front, but the plot is very slow and especially the final act feels forced and rushed and not well thought thru (and its kinda cliche).

Anyway, all in all a rather ambivalent experience but still watchable - for fans of the genre and/or the actors.

There's not a lot of backstory or dialogue in this flick but Peter Dinklage managed to grab our attention with great acting. To communicate with subtlety is worth watching. I feel like it's something we can all learn from.
