    Reality on the Mark

    I was quite stunned to see that this movie was written and directed by Franka Potente. I only know Miss Potente from her role in the Jason Bourne movies. I had no idea her talent and artistry extended into writing and directing.

    I am a strong believer that there should be more women directors. This movie was a solid look at reality, and what can really play out when a former prisoner returns home. The reactions to his return were true, they were believable, and I absolutely loved this movie.

    Miss Potente is a skilled director and I look forward to seeing more of her work on the big screen.

    Kathy Bates always turns in good performances, "Home" is no exception. Jake McLaughlin's work is powerful. A very good and solid movie.

    Slow

    Kathy Bates is there... but not really. There is nothing new here to learn and it's not that entertaining. It really has that low budget feel thought-out the film without any thing for you to say "but that's OK". Jake McLaughlin's acting and look are good... but that alone does not carry the film.

    Not my Kind of movie.

    I just don't like those slice of life drama movies, they are boring and never add anything new. Here something felt different I really loved how the movie started and how it ended. If that was a korean movie people would love it. In this movie nothing good happens. You have a guy returning home and from the beginning to the end, you like him and you root for him, there has to be a meaning for what he did... but in the end its just life that happened. I really enjoyed the movie Soundtrack and the cast were perfect, especially jayden he always felt like the Angel sitting on your shoulder with the right words.

    A lovely film

    Watched it on DirecTV tonight because it interested me and I saw that it was leaving the platform soon. I am so glad I saw it. A very accomplished "little" film about life and death and everything in-between. Highly recommended.

    One in who knows how many

    Very powerful movie. Very, very simple, yet very deep and strong. All that a movie should be. I really liked making subtitles for it, and remembered in every second why I love to watch movies. Among so so many empty, boring, repetitive and predictive movies, this one really moves you and gives you strong emotions. Jake McLaughlin is brilliant, I felt all the complex emotions all the way through the movie. Very interested to watch other movies with these actors and director. Thank you for the very pleasant job that I had these days, I only could wish that more movies like this one comes my way.
