Haunted by an accident he caused in high school, a filmmaker is drawn back to his hometown where he is confronted by former friends and a community that disdains him as he tries to find peace with the hurt he left behind.

Wittrock’s performance as the rather hard-to-like Thomas is acute; he’s a callow guy who mistakenly wagers that art can exorcise his demons even as he desperately skirts the prospect of making amends.

This charismatic actor holds the camera effortlessly, and it’s good to see him again in a leading role onscreen, even if the film turns out to be disappointingly thin.

6/10

The movie-within-the-movie is a statement on truth and fiction, and, interestingly, that idea carries over to the film proper, allowing us to wrestle with the blurred lines.

Anchored by a nuanced lead performance from Finn Wittrock, the sometimes-jumbled Westhampton is a well-acted drama about a filmmaker who goes back to his hometown and experiences backlash for making a movie based on a tragedy that he caused.

3.5/5

The quiet, introspective approach is somewhat low on energy, but there are powerful things going on under the surface. And even if the dialog feels overwritten, provocative ideas hold the attention.

Wittrock is at the center of it all, and he gives one of the best performances in his filmography. ... That’s another great thing about Westhampton: it never attempts to simplify things that are so inherently messy, they don’t really have neat solutions.

I'm not sure what the point of the movie was. It was very slow, and the ending was senseless. The lead character played by Finn Witrock did an excellent job with a boring and meandering script. The movie was confusing and just plain boring. There are better options to waste 90 minutes.
