Waste of time
Captivating movie !
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
The film is beautifully shot. Throughout a lot of the scenes it felt like i was looking at photographs. As far as the storyline goes, i'd say a mildly good one. It brings the viewer little introspective thinking about walks of life here and there throughout the movie, but nothing enlightning or emotional. Solid acting from Haley Lu Richardson.
Watching this made me realize that the art of filmmaking is still alive and well, from having a beautiful "green colored" screen to great acting and bonding between the actors
What a movie!! Real life story and wonderful acting by all. The best revelation is Haley Lu Richardson. Wonderful calm movie. Really appreciate this movie.
This movie will attract only specific audience who shares interest in slow pace storytelling and have patience to let things unfold serenely. The narrative writer is telling us does not comprised of series of rapidly moving incidents. Actually, we can sum up the entire plot in just one or two lines or ten seconds orally. The pleasure is in the natural conversation between the two lead characters and the wisdom they share with each other and apparently with us.The story is about two characters, Casey, a talented girl with growing interest in architecture and Jin, a Korean middle aged man, son of a famous architect who also shares estranged relationship with his father. These both characters are stuck in Columbus, Indiana where they form a cordial relationship with each other which ultimately help them overcoming the obstacles they are facing in their respective lives.This is Kogonada's directorial debut. He has done a perfect job delivering a sentimental drama with alluring theme of architecture. Haley Lu Richardson is someone to look out for in this film. John Cho has also performed his role very precisely. These both characters are unlike each other yet they witness a charismatic bond and form a implausible relationship. Because of the flawless chemistry between Richardson and Cho this movie makes emotive impact on viewers. Their instinctive dialog delivery and conversations make this drama more intense. Cinematography is really beautiful and felicitous to the movie theme.This movie has a lot to tell and it is all about human relationship conquering racial, cultural and geographical boundaries.
