Kairi Nov 10 Beyond boring the idea is great but it's so slow to slow to even keep interest nothing really happens the acting and dialogue are meh at best and none of the characters are all that interesting or likeable the idea of the mom cloning her dead daughter is fun to bad that doesn't happen until the very end that should have happened after Zoey is put into a coma over all I can not recommend this boring film hell I'll forget about it by tomorrow See more Martyn S Jul 9 This is one of the most pointless and boring films I have ever seen. I spent the entire film waiting for it to get going - for something meaningful to happen - it never did. The two main characters are the stereotypical portrayal of exes in conflict - nothing interesting at all. See more Daniel G 09/23/2022 It seemed almost like 2 movies - a slow drama focusing on a family tragedy, a fast-paced Black Mirror-like scifi that ultimately generates false hope. Though it was a well-done character study that obviously was a work of love for Julie Delpy - lead protagonist, writer and director, it was just not wholly satisfying, See more Mark D 10/03/2021 Julie Delpy wrote, directed, and stars in this subtle yet moving story of a mother's undying love for her daughter. She plays Isabelle, a brilliant researcher living in Germany. She's going through a difficult divorce while having an affair with another man. One day her daughter Zoe, who she dotes on, becomes ill and ends up in the hospital. There's no explanation for what happened to her, and she goes into a coma. Both she and her ex husband are devastated when their beloved daughter dies. While her husband thinks they need to move on, Isabelle saves a bit of Zoe's skin and is determined to have her cloned. This sounds futuristic, but the way the story is told, it could actually happen today. I got totally sucked into the story and found the acting brilliant. Although it's slow paced, there's an undercurrent of tension that kept me glued to the screen right until the end. See more 03/04/2021 After trashing the sacrifices of motherhood in Before Midnight, Delpy celebrates the institution, albeit in a twisted, modern way that declares my body and my life are my own, even though I had nothing to do with bringing it into existence. Not up to her previous work. See more 02/07/2021 This was poorly executed and drowning in expository, dragging dialogue. We only saw it through to the end because we found the writing and Delphy's performance so ridiculously humorous. Made us in the mood to watch Tommy Wiseau's The Room! Shame!
