Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

genecraigla Stick with it! The frustration emulates that of the homeless. Don't look for answers and happy endings. With most of the homeless there aren't. What they get is malnutrition and a sinking into mental illness, some more quickly and some more gradually. The constant harassment of life, consistent entangling with "the system", and the spoiling of all dreams big and small all contribute to this. You see all of this here.Richard Gere gave a stellar performance at just the right speed and perfect pitch. This is the best I've seen him in and I am not a fan. Ben Verene is annoying beyond possible. I also wanted to tell him to stop talking at the same point Gere does. Verene does a spot on job as well. The authorities are not painted as evil, just people doing their boring jobs and trying to get through their tasks.I wish they would have spent more time on the father daughter relationship. That deserves a whole movie of its own, maybe the sequel: Street Smarts. ;-) play on words!

Andres-Camara I think it's one of the things that makes this movie not come. The director insists on leaving the character alone, only the camera is always too far away. I think he does it to leave Gere alone on the street and see how the people around him react, but he does not realize that really, everyone who walks by his side walks without paying attention to anyone, not just him, but nobody. The movie takes a long time to start. We see him doing the same thing over and over again, always at a distance and we do not empathize. We do not know anything about him. Then it starts and you only see that he complains about everything, even when he can have a help and be able to pull up complains. Yes, nobody deserves to be like this, but if they try to help you, thank them and take them. We almost got to know more other characters than him.Even so, the actors are great. I find it curious to see from time to time how Richard is and how he escapes that walk of person with a lot of class and style, I have always thought that he was one of the actors with the most cinema style. Although it tries to walk like collapsed but sometimes it can not avoid it and they escape to him.I do not like photography, I do not think you have to make a bad photograph to talk about the street. It would have to be cold because of the situation but not insipid.I am very pleased that you have done that haircut with piercing and that you see the scar. If I had it long I understand that this bad cut but being short why?The director does not know how boring it is. If we had known why it is there and how it happens in a more enjoyable way, the film would have won. Only knows how to place the camera at a distance and only manages to leave you at a distance from the character. It makes a long film, too long and the end, which for me is not closed, it will serve him, not me.I would not see her again

Saiph90 The idea of a film depicting the plight of the homeless people in America is a worthy sentiment but as a film not sure this particularly works. It is filmed from a far which gives a detached feeling, I think Richard Gere does pretty well depicting the lead George but I just did not engage, there is no back story of how he ended up like this or why his daughter hates him so much. This is done to maintain the detached feel of the movie as is the have heard conversations as he wanders around New York but it seems a long movie and I am not sure what so point they wished to make. Maybe it is the disgrace that America does not have universal health care like the British NHS or we need to care more for the homeless, not sure the movie fully works.

SnoopyStyle George (Richard Gere) is homeless in New York. He gets kicked out of Sheila's apartment by Art (Steve Buscemi) and his workers. He is sleeping on the streets, and hanging out at the hospital as he tries to navigate the system. He stays at a shelter. On the streets, he's accosted by Dixon (Ben Vereen) who befriends him. He is estranged from his daughter Maggie (Jena Malone).It's a mostly reserved performance. Gere basically disappears into this role. In some scenes, he fades into the background. It's a really compelling idea of the modern untouchables. There isn't much of a dramatic story as he drifts from one scene to the next. There are some memorable moments like the crazy guy in the next bunk in the shelter. The movie is unnecessarily long. One could get the same points in something with thirty minutes less.
