State Like Sleep

Because that's pretty much where it took me. Boring "plot", unlikable characters, lots of shadowy shots for no reason, and tons of pointless conversation. Unrealistic situation and dialogue.

Doesn't help that I'm sick of seeing older male actors paired with young actresses for gratuitous sex scenes. Love me some Michael Shannon, but this movie stunk for many reasons.

A really slow moving boring film. I was surprised that so many good actors agreed to appear in this, perhaps the script was better on paper than in production. Don't waste your time watching this unless you suffer from insomnia.

I see what they were trying to do... but they failed. Too slow, didn't believe the story, acting was only thing god about it.

After her celebrity husband may have committed suicide, a woman tries to figure out what was going on in the dead man's life just before he died. Her mother shows up to help. And the dead husband's mother shows up. And no-one gets along. And then nothing happens for 15 minutes. .. so it appears we keep flashing back into the days just before it all ended for hubby. It gets confusing ... we're not always sure where we are. In the past, or back in the present ? Maybe that's what the writer wants? Who knows. This is rated quite low on imdb, and I can see why so many are confused by it. But to a certain extent, you have to just go with the story, as bare as it is. Written and directed by Meredith Danluck.

Katherine Waterston is as lovely as ever, Michael Shannon is very nice in a role that's considerably softer than his usual parts, and the direction is slick and competent. However the whole thing is mostly forgettable and the movie just sort of ends without a satisfying resolution.
