    I loved it. I think you have to be older to appreciate the message of this movie. Time & family are so precious. It goes by fast! I really thought it was genius to include so many flash backs through time all in the same location. Fascinating. In the end, you really realize what is most important & all your regrets too. I could relate with many scenes. Time to take that trip or start that hobby!

    This movie really showed how quickly life passes by and the how precious those times are with our family and loved ones. How we let years fly by and focus on things that don't matter in the end. Really made me think about life and embracing all those moments that we will look back on and treasure. The part I didn't like, was the black family's speech about police to their son, that was totally out of place and felt like they put it in to virtue signal. Should have been removed.

    This is a fine, small movie. It's like coming across someone's family photos and trying to understand their lives. Only the someone is a place and a home. If you want characters and plot, this isn't for you. It's like a filmed collage. Try to ignore the famous actors, writers, and director Don't think about the fancy technology. It is much better on DVD or streaming, since there are so many moments that go by too quickly to appreciate; I stopped and went back many times. Maybe you have to be old(er) to appreciate it; it frequently jogged memories of my own life and places I've lived, similar and different. I missed it in theaters but I'm glad I remembered to find it at the library.

    **Here – 3 Stars** As a massive *Forrest Gump* fan, I had sky-high hopes for *Here*. I mean, Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, and Zemeckis teaming up again? That’s the dream team. The premise is super creative—one camera angle, watching time pass through a single spot in a house. Alan Silvestri’s score? Absolutely beautiful, giving every moment an extra emotional punch. But honestly, I expected something different. I thought it’d focus more on Hanks and Wright’s family, not jump across so many generations. That broader scope made it feel a bit distant, even though it’s visually impressive. It’s definitely a Zemeckis movie: warm, inventive, and easy to watch. I had a good time, no regrets. But I can’t shake the feeling it could’ve hit harder emotionally if it stuck closer to its leads. Still, it’s a solid, unique film that fans of heartfelt cinema will enjoy… just not *love*.

    This movie is depressing. Not in an emotionally impactful way, but in a way that makes you feel regret for wasting 1.5 hours of your life on this film to only feel shitty about yourself in the end.

    I learned almost everything I need to know about older white people of a former social circle.

    Here is an interesting experiment of a film. At times intriguing, at times frustrating and maudlin. Robert Zemeckis is to be applauded for making a very unconventional film, but the flaws of the film are easy to see. The film's unique concept is that it is filmed from one spot in one house over many decades. In fact it starts off with the time before humans in a spot where the house will be eventually be filmed. Most of the story takes place over the last century as we jump back and forth in the stories of several families that live in the house. Primarily Al and Rose who buy the house after World War Two and their son Richard who marries Margaret. We flit back na dforth constantly as we follow their hopes and dreams, their ups and downs. It's a fascinating concept and I was mostly curious, but the conceit wears a bit thin after a while. I felt the film needed to be sharper and more robust to truly work coherently.

    A movie when you're feeling introspective. A reminder that life is fleeting. The single camera made for an interesting perspective, almost simplifying life to a series of snapshots. A single storyline doesn't necessarily thread through the movie if that's what you're looking for, but I think that's also part of the point.
