Stephen A @RT58052704 May 20 For Dylan fans who really love Dylan, this film is a must. For the casual viewer it can still be entertaining and the guest musicians will make it worth their while. Jim James doing "Going to Acapulco" with Calexico was beautiful. The entire soundtrack is magnificent. The original Dylan songs were perfectly selected. My take on the film is that it’s Dylan playing Dylan for what people think Dylan is - or was - throughout different periods of his life. So - there’s the boy riding trains (Woody) pretending to be a hobo and spinning a yarn, while also being on the lamb. Kate Blanchet plays amphetamine Dylan, frustrated and incapable of explaining himself. Rock star Dylan by Heath Ledger - pompous and nihilistic. And folk singer and gospel singer played by Bale, bearing his soul and being his most authentic selves, though not for long. The Billy the Kid Dylan played by Gere was one of my favorites. Living a quiet life of exile, he confronts an injustice, then retreats. Nothing more Dylan.

See more Cat B @PieGirly 05/18/2025 Honestly just a weird-ahh movie. It's one of those really avant-garde things that makes people say, "It was....interesting." My teenage daughter spent the entirety of the film going "What the frick is happening? I'm so confused rn" which is basically the definition of this movie, so heads-up. I'm sure this is some peoples' jam, and good for them, so if you're that specific kind of artsy type, go ahead, but if you're looking for an informative, straightforward, or true to reality sort of movie, this is not it.

See more Tim M @tgmacman 04/17/2025 Todd Haynes's experimental I'm Not There is more disparate than most music biopics - pseudo or otherwise - but is ultimately able to find the ethos of Bob Dylan's mystique. See more Destry S @RT09608996 03/17/2025 This is a horrible movie. I'm a huge Bob Dylan fan. I've tried to watch this movie on 3 different occasions. Turned it off each time. Great cast. Terrible film. See more Read all reviews
