Here (Aquí)

I have a lot of mixed feelings about 'Here'. There are parts of it I loved, and parts of it I didn't care for. I'm a nostalgic guy and this kind of film should've hit me really hard. And it did, but not until right at the end. I feel like they could've squeezed more juice out of the concept.

All the story arcs in the movie feel very underwhelming and un-film-worthy. And at first I thought that was a strange decision, but thinking about it more I can at least see what they were going for. They wanted it to be more relatable, so that you'd look around the room you're watching the film in and think about all the memories you've had. Chances are no one has had a baby in the room you're sitting in (you never know) but a lot of the other stuff has likely happened.

The film has a hard hitting final scene that I really appreciated. It was a great way to end the film. 6/10 doesn't quite feel like the right rating for this film, but no number really does. It's a funny one like that.
