Somewhere

SOMEWHERE (2010) - Dec. 28, 2010
Almost absurdly low-key, I enjoyed this film, though I do feel like it's Sophia Coppola's weakest effort.  About a disaffected playboy movie star who spends a couple of weeks with his daughter, the film was certainly well made and well acted, if a bit disappointing given Coppola's previous work.  I liked and felt for Stephen Dorff's Johnny Marco (and Dorff is probably better here than I've ever seen him), but the film did feel a bit aloof.  I'd definitely like to see it at least one more time before I fully pass judgment on it, but it does feel kind of like lesser Sophia Coppola.  ***
