Critics Consensus

Given the amount of talent assembled on both sides of the camera, Are You Here falls bewilderingly flat.

David Edelstein

New York Magazine/Vulture

It's funny, clunky, earnest, and barely credible, but it's all of a piece.

A comedy with no laughs. A drama disconnected from any known reality.

Rated: 1.5/4

Globe and Mail

Everything about Are You Here feels like a bottom-drawer script idea that was put together too casually and carelessly.

Rated: 1/4

Richard Crouse

A comedy about substance abuse and bi polar behavior, it's not as funny as a movie starring Owen Wilson and Zach Galifianakis should be nor is it as insightful as Weiner likely intended.

Rated: 2/5

A nauseous, floundering excuse for a film.

Wilson and co. aim for something deep and profound, but there's nothing to be found here aside from disappointment and frustration

I don't know why this movie has such a bad rating on here. It is brilliant. Maybe because its brilliance is subtle. It is deep and real and these things are presented in such simple, honest ways. God damn. This movie was such a pleasant surprise, I love it so much

Absolute waste of time. Don't wait for the good stuff- it never comes. Reason enough to never watch Owen Wilson in anything ever again.

I actually thought it had pretty profound moments and was an interesting story. In the lack of direction, the characters lost and found themselves again. It's a movie about growth after being lost, and what we all lose in noise of modern life and what one could lack without forming real bonds.

I'm not normally into these types of movies, but for some reason I got sucked into this one. And I have to say that I very much enjoyed it. Especially the interaction between the characters. Well done in my opinion.
