Somewhere Only We Know

Highly recommend this little indie gem. Ran across this title, liked the poster and was so pleased to find a film the whole family enjoyed. I was hesitant to rent, when I read it was about the loss of a spouse (since one of our friends who was over had lost their wife) BUT found the subject matter to be background for the story. The film was humorous, suspenseful and pleased EVERYONE in a living room of 7 people.

I love checking out indie movies on Amazon. I felt compelled to write after reading the gentlemen's negative review. This is not an installment of the Avengers series - I'm sorry Iron Man didn't show up and blow something up for you. This was a well crafted story, well shot with great actors, on and indie budget this is really a triumph. Regarding the bottle of rum, the old lady, and GW I think you should watch the movie again. Those were pretty obvious plot points. Again, very well acted film some very real human moments. My favorite was the two main characters talking in the woods. Sometimes all you can do is listen, you want to help but you can't, I think those actors nailed that moment.

I'm excited to see what this director does next.

ALERT. PLEASE DON'T WATCH THIS RANCID FILM!!

Let's start with this director/writer should never be allowed to do anything else film wise. She/he/they/it is absolutely terrible! Why spending money and time to lure in producers and investors just to show them how bad you are as a writer and director.

BAD ACTING! BAD PLOT! SLOW AS SNAILS! BAD SOUND AND EDITING.

The list goes on and on. I have on clue why we need this junk to litter the film world. The director should be forced to flip burgers at McDonalds until their days come.

There is nothing good I can mention at all, except the cinematography in the beginning is decent and nice. But after 3 minutes in, I realized it's going to be hell to watch. The clue is when the guy pours liquor in the glass, and stops and then does it again. It's against alcoholic nature. They never stop and hesitates to do it.

After that scene, I get more angry and angry watching it.

Very slow moving. I lost interest after the first 30 minutes, but because of the "high ratings" I thought it would get better- it did not.

I just couldn't connect with the main character. There was NOTHING likable about him. He was supposed to be a big ad executive, yet his appearance told a different story. His wife wasn't dead long enough for him to have a full beard (and a disgusting one at that). His hair was constantly hanging in his face- not the only reason this film is such a stinker. But a good actor would have gotten the point across without such cheap tactics.

There's nothing cohesive about this movie!

The (10 star) ratings seemed to have been written by the same person who wrote the movie's description...they couldn't even decide on one title! It's all over the place. Oh, and the 10 star ratings have written no other reviews - just this movie. It's quite telling when the filmmaker has no faith in their own work. I wasted time on this dud thanks to dishonesty. Do NOT recommend.

15 minutes in, nothing but grunts, groans, moans, and grimaces. Is there gorilla glue in the lead's hair? Or just so much grease that it stays hanging in his face? I already don'tgive a crap about what his problem is. Wifey is terrible CGI, like something out of 50's horror movies. Oh, goodie. Now the rum bottle is talking. 21 minutes and done. Those 10 star ratings? Totally fake. Written by the director and his mistress, for sure.
