the leading man is my tpye

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

because it's a pure stinker that nobody wants to watch ! OK i didn't have the subtitles so i couldn't grasp the conversations but here the summary of what i have understood: a group of friends are in vacations in a cottage near a lake : they prepare a meal, they eat it, they have a coffee break while Jenny speaks about a baby; then, they become obsessed by the yacht anchored in the lake : one guy swims to it and gets hurt ! Jenni reaches it by taking a boat and that's it ! So during 70 minutes, it's a plain, it's a drag ! Nothing happens, there is no tension, no talent behind the camera ! Like all the talkative movies, they fail to be interesting because instead of shooting the stories, they shoot the teller ! So maybe someone will find it a masterpiece but for me it's among the worst movies Jenny ever did !

So mannered and "actor-y" you want to scream, this film is notable only for the participation of the always-wonderful Dan Futterman. This is the nadir of Jennifer Connelly's self-conscious, "aren't-I-a-fine-actress?" film turns (at least she's not relying on her breasts as usual). Not worth the time.

I saw the movie... Oh my God... parts of it, because half of the time I was fighting against sleeping...The only thing that I take out of that crap is the great performer Jennifer Connelly....I would like to ask her agent why he (or her) scheduled a film like FAR HARBOR ....It`s a another pill like MELATONINE.....Thank you.

Without going into to many details of the movie, I will say it's one of those movies which was a nice surprise. I think it's one movie for Jennifer Connelly, where it shows that she's a really great actress. It's also not like a lot of her movies, where she's just the beautiful women. She's warm, lovable, and she draws you into her character. The rest of the cast is really good also, but I think this is Jennifer's movie. I watched this movie, over & over a number of times, and I have to say I love it more each time I see it! It's just about friends getting together, in a house with a special person on a boat docked, close to them. They all have issues to deal with, and this get together brings it all to a head. Just take my word, you will love this movie. For me it's the kind of movie I felt was a special gift that was given to me. Rent, or buy it. It's well worth it!
