gadawag One word sums up this movie - BORING! The opening tells you right there and then what to expect, that everything will be such a drag from thereon. It gives you this anxious feeling which is not one bit ok. The plot is flat and terrible. I will remember this movie as one the worst I've seen.

gavin6942 A friendship between two young men (Casey Affleck and Matt Damon) is tested when they go for a hike in a desert and forget to bring any water or food with them.This film reunites Damon and director Gus VanSant, who were amazing together for "Good Will Hunting". It also features a strong friendship between an Affleck and a Damon... but not the usual Affleck. Of course, they had also starred together a year before in "Ocean's Eleven". That these two knew each other so well in real life could only have added to the affinity in the film.Oddly, the tumbleweed scene was inspired by "Tomb Raider". One would not expect much inspiration for a story about two friends wandering and talking about nothing in particular (including "Wheel of Fortune"), but of all things a part was brought to screen by VanSant after seeing (and possibly playing) Lara Croft.

ladymirenna To quote some other reviewers, I was "shocked" "stunned" "mesmerized". Yes, after 20 years of chronic insomnia, I was shocked, stunned and mesmerized by the realization that if I had seen this "movie" when it had first come out, I would have been spared these last 11 years of insomnia. Finally, a cure! To use a time-worn cliché: Its amazing what passes for "art" these days. I had seen the director's "Last Days" and thought that the extended shots in that film gives the viewer just enough time to re-group and center on what the writer is trying to convey, as well as time to reflect on the sequence of events and where the movie is headed. I also thought that the time-length of those shots were enough to put one in a "real time" mode. "Last Days" also featured some characterizations, events, music and settings which could draw the viewer in. "Last Days" is about as "real time" and "existential" as I could deal with without discomfort. "Gerry" had no such redeeming, or, winning, qualities. After the first 10 minutes, I fast-forwarded to the middle of the film, viewed that for about one minute, then fast-forwarded to the parting shots and sincerely believed that I had understood the entire film. I guess if I want a meditative, slowing-down-the-mind and being-in-the-now experience I will settle for my Tibetan Buddhist practices.
