No Address

To call this script half baked would be a compliment well beyond what would be accurate, it is quarter baked at best.

It succeeds in making the audience empathetic but that is the most it accomplishes, the same effect can be achieved in reading an article about problems faced by the homeless and causes of it, which simultaneously appears to be the most research done by these writers. It has its moments but they are almost all at the end and they really aren't earned, neither do they achieve the desired effect they think it does.

My review gives this 3 stars, two of which come from half of the box office proceeds going towards assisting the homeless, I can always respect a studio practicing what they preach. And the other star is for the acting despite a script desolate of character depth and proper substance, it fails in all other regards.

Movie reviews in some ways are like Rorschach responses reflecting the reviewers observational skills, capacity to integrate, and the nature of their mind and heart in reflection. When one critical review of 'No Address' seems to overlook the significance of military service of some principle characters, that means something. In this social climate today where many benevolent phenomenon are under attack, who wants to see a movie about the homeless. Who cares, right? 'Am I my brothers keeper?' some may ask. In my humble opinion, it is not the mission of 'No Address' to offer, or provide, solutions to the growing crisis. That is too much to ask. Rather, this film provides a breathtaking glimpse into sequences of events that bring some together at one point in time. The callousness of attitudes toward the homeless by some is tactfully shown, but not overdone. Nevertheless, survival instinct dictates, when you can't be with the ones you love, love the (safe) ones you're with. A silver lining of this timely, poignant, simply wonderful film is that individuals having a heart and caring about each other can matter a whole lot. It's a cinematic journey into an abyss where some light continues to shine, ultimately revealing what the world needs now is love, sweet love, no not just for some, but for everyone. This cake is baked just right. I believe 'No Address' is a beautiful 5 star movie for the ages.

Not since 1993's Sliver have we seen such a tour de force performance from Billy Baldwin. Like a swarm of biblical locusts, his talent emerges once a generation to stun the masses and terrify those who aren't prepared. Must have been rough living in the shadow of Alec, a supernova talent. This film sets thing right with that inequity. Beverly D'Angelo is great as always, if eerily well preserved. All in all this is a solid well executed film worth seeing. Be patient with negative reviews on here, many are not comfortable with homelessness to begin with and that will color what they have to say.

This film is a worth a look. Not just because it addresses some serious issues facing humanity, but also because of an unlikely cast members inclusion. Billy Baldwin may be the subject of endless jokes - nepo boomer, Alec warmed over, it never ends. And making a movie with Billy Baldwin isn't easy. Ask anyone who has tried. His filmography is a long list of wrecked projects and broken dreams. But his equitable performance-if you're willing to call it a performance-doesn't actually ruin this movie.

Which is surprising. He brings a certain diversity when it comes to talent levels. Not everyone has to be an ace.

The film tackles stories that are experienced by real people across the country who experience homelessness. The star-studded ensemble gives insightful and heart-filled performances that audiences empathize with. Each character's story was unique to their situation and was portrayed with realism and authenticity. It gives various perspectives on how homelessness has affected these people throughout their lives.

The direction of this film hones in on the idea of sympathy for those who are less fortunate, leaving audiences inspired and willing to make change. In addition to pursuing further efforts extend aid for mental health and substance addiction/abuse.
