De vuelta a casa (Home Again), De vuelta a casa, Un coeur à prendre
this is the corniest thing i've ever seen and i live in a town that has literal cornfields surrounding it
i can't quite champion this wildly unrealistic portrait of rich white heterosexuality as some kind of misunderstood feminist gem, or even the unfairly critically rejected masterpiece i was hoping it would be. so i have to tell you that it is dumb, that nobody talks the way they would talk in real life, that it reminded me of a less sincere cameron crowe movie, that there are a couple of mildly offensive jokes, that it ultimately boils down to the aforementioned glorification of rich people problems that we probably don't need to see any more of. the most interesting part about it visually/technically is how goddamn bright it is, making pretty much every other movie released in the last 10…
do any of you people understand the power of a good cry to the film home again or am i completely alone in this world
A blissful experience, like eating a bar of Xanax and falling asleep on a plane, then waking up to find that you've landed and that there's a mimosa sitting in front of you
Reese Witherspoon has such a warm presence. Home Again doesn't take many risks, and it likely won't be a film that resonates with most viewers in any profound way, but it just felt really nice to watch. It's rather predictable and a little too clean, every problem being resolved by a thirty-second dialogue exchange, yet there was something comforting about that. I won't deny that there are a good deal of issues in the formulaic script and flat direction. Am I saying that any of you need to rush out and see this tonight? No, but of all the movies out right now, this just might be the sweetest. A woman smiled at me when she saw me wiping away tears as we left the theater. It's been a shit week -- this really helped. That means something to me.
Rating: 70/100
physically i am in bed watching this movie but mentally i am starring in a broadway revival of this is our youth opposite nat and alex wolff and they are both in love with me
women-led, women-directed, women-written rom-com starring Miss Reese and featuring characters who love film as a central plot point? I really am Home Again!!!
IN WHAT WORLD DOES SOMEONE HAVE AN OSCAR AWARD TROPHY ON THEIR WINDOWSILL AND NOT DO FAKE ACCEPTANCE SPEECHES IN THE MIRROR
Also I have loved Nat Wolff since I was 7 when he sang the song Rosalina in The Naked Brothers Band and I used to listen to it on my sister's LG Cookie in the car looking out the window in contemplation, deciding how I was gonna make him fall in love with me
20 minutes in and I already know I won’t be able to finish it. The scrip is really bad. The setting/cinematography is horrible and characters seem obviously fake. I can’t take any of the characters seriously and the relationship developing between Harry and Alive makes me uncomfortable, especially because he looks so young. The movie as a whole is cringe to me.
47/100
Misses some substantial connective tissues throughout, and it continuously takes things slightly too far, in all directions - never so it becomes too unbelievable, but just a bit too far - without ever being really funny enough to justify it. But it's got something, and what that something is, is not easy to detect. Heart? Reese Witherspoon? A fun premise? Well, it's got all that, and what stops Home Again from drowning in its mediocre qualities must be some concoction of that and other things that just kind of worked for me. All in all: Okay movie!
nancy meyers really did say to her daughter: here honey, take 15 million and make whatever little shell of a rom-com you want!
nepotism man! liked it more the second time tho!
I'm not even sure what to make of this because I know this is objectively bad, and yet I am charmed all the same. I think straight up, just removing the romance subplot from this film would solve a lot of the issues I had considering I just never believed it and found it got in the way of the exploration of the whole surrogate family thing. Anyways, I found it way more fun overall just to try and figure out what amalgamation of directors Alice's father was. I think I ended up landing on a combination of Paul Mazursky and John Cassavetes + a little Charles Shyer, obviously. Just make the movie about him and his wife honestly, I was never more interested in the film than when she was telling stories in the kitchen.
I remember watching this film in the cinemas when it just came out back when we still went to the cinemas to watch movies when you were bored. Don't remember much about it except for the fact that 17 year old me hated it so so much.
Dieser Film ist sehr durchschnittlich und leider ohne bemerkenswerte Höhen und Tiefen. Trotzdem trifft er gelegentlich den Ton und hat ein gutes Herz.
