We Don't Belong Here

It was one of Anton Yelchin's best acting performances. Other actresses were also very successful. Although some parts of the movie confused me, I could generally understand. The soundtrack was very nice. Although it has an average story in general, the success of acting and the emotional empathy made me love the movie.

I enjoyed this movie. It is a family character study about deeply troubled and mentally ill siblings, some of whom have dealt with childhood trauma. Three of the children (adult children) appear to have precognition, though only one of them seems to be aware of it and is able to use it to alter an event. Keener gives a superb performance as the mother. This family loves each other, although they each suffer internally with their own demons. This is a slow burn, but well worth a watch. All of the characters speak softly, it was a strain for me to hear sometimes. There is no yelling and only one violent scene. It is an emotional study of a loving family who just doesn't feel it "belongs here", meaning in this world.

Excellent movie. "Fictional" story, that tackles topics all too real. The ironic part is how true the entire film is, in actuality. It's all real. There is greatness and unbelievable power within us all. The problem is that we can't hold onto our happy thoughts.

A likeable plot with twist, although some were eye rolling. I think all the actors did well in the portrayal of their respective characters. I mean I couldn't stand the love interest chosen for Lily to bequeath. Her virginity to. His character was a slimy weasel of the worst kind, and he did a great job in his characterization of Davey.

The one twist worked to the point that it took a minute to wonder why a certain event took place. So kudos for some good script writing and direction for a change. Too many of these films depend on the tried and true bland and predictable formats that do more towards the negative aspects of the movie, and do not inspire a positive experience.

So other than the awkward teen romance that was as predictable as it was gross as for the choice of available dudes for the fair young lady.

I enjoyed this movie. It is a family character study about deeply troubled and mentally ill siblings, some of whom have dealt with childhood trauma. The shadow of mentall illness weights heavy as issues large. This movie actually understand mental illness and bipolar disorder and it shows mental illness in a realistic way. The human mind doesn´t fit psychiatric definitions and this movie brings out the complexity of troubeled lives.
