Who We Are Now

When I page through my cable guide, I often check out a film that I have not known of before. They have to have high ratings on various review sites or a performer whom I appreciate. I had not heard of this, nor did the premise intrigue me, but when i saw Julianne Nicholson was the first named actor I immediately programmed the film. I was not disappointed. I have been a bigBigBIG fan since Law & Order: Criminal Intent. She is one of the most compelling actors working today. There is never a false moment in this performance (or any other that I have seen, for that matter). She played an unlikable character, that made you root for her even through the self-destructive behavior.

The other actors were fine but no one had more than a supporting role to JN's starring turn. On an side note, to the reviewer who waxed rapturously over Zachary Quinto's performance and said that it would have been a good movie if only it had been about him you have to understand that his role was NEVER going to be more than a peripheral one.

If you like a great story, great acting and a story that Is not a typical Hollywood, predictable, wrap everything up with a nice bow on it at the end, movie - then this is for you. Particularly excellent performances from Julianne Nicholson, Emma Roberts snd Zachary Quinto.

Great film! An intelligent script interweaving several layers executed perfectly. Not one line out of place and not one orphaned moment to lose interest in. I think the ending was a little out of character but that's only a small blemish on otherwise captivating drama. I really enjoyed this - Love Your Work!

Very impressive. Wonderful performances by Julianne Nicholson and other key members of the cast. The story is interesting and touching and the ending is dramatic but provides the right conclusion.

Highly recommend seeing this.

It's a real look of how hard life can be and the choices we have to make everyday. Do we want to be right or happy? I thought the acting was fabulous and the story was original. Two thumbs up
