Somewhere (2010)

Somewhere

If you've ever watched the stunningly beautiful masterpiece Lost in Translation, it's impossible to not recognize that this is as well a Sofia Coppola movie. However. Stephen Dorff is no Bill Murphy, and the relationship between him and his daughter is nowhere as fascinating and intriguing as the one between Murphy and Johansson 7 years ago.

There's still a lot of good in this movie as well. The slow building, the scenes where words are unnecessary to portray feelings and the gentle touches and glimpses. Coppola has her own style, and executes it very well. The story still lacks the sparks and direction to come close to her famous one.

Dorff is good, but not great. Fanning is however doing a marvelous job as his daughter. The supports are also well cast throughout.
