petertdoheny-25661 - 8 March 2024 Boring Disappointed with this dreary and mundane attempt at a coming of age tale.
Perhaps the director should gave been beaten much much more as a child.
One it would have taught him respect for his amazingly indulgent family, and
Two it would have spared this blissfully unaware story.
When I saw all the television advertisements for this I kind of wondered how bad it might be.
Judging from it appallingly low box office results might also have spared me the two hours.
No idea what the Trump family cameos were meant to represent other than confirming a bad President came from a bad family. Duh!!!
Only giving it a kind 6 out of respect to the actors.
Don't waste your time.
paul-387-999638 - 21 July 2023 Strangely intimate It's clear from the early scenes this movie is something terribly personal and real to writer and director James Gray. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a story literally from his own life. All the small details about his grandparents at dinner, the relationship between other family members, and the slightly unclear arc of the story - which is exactly how a 12 year old boy would perceive it.
While it's certainly no Oscar contender, it is strangely intimate. It tells a story like it almost doesn't care where it goes, or how you feel about it. It just is. And while that makes it hard for some people to grasp it, it's also the reason it feels so genuine.
