“This is not a good film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut itu0026#39;s not a bad film either.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eConsider the blank canvas hung in the museum. Questions arise: What is this? Why is this here? Who did this? Why did they do this? And most importantly, do I care about this?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThese are the type of questions you will be left with after seeing `Gerry.u0026#39;u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film is painfully slow to watch, the dialogue unrewarding, the landscape more interesting than the cinematography, the characters undefined, and the plot full of holes.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd yet, the film sticks with you and makes you think… just as the blank canvas does.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAfter leaving the theater, you truly contemplate the strange trip you just took through the middle of nowhere while you draw parallels to your own adventures.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd for these reasons the journey is worthwhile… the film, worth seeing.”
