Movie Review

Grade: B+ Matt Damon and Casey Affleck star in the interesting and original Gerry, a movie about two guys who end up getting lost in a modern day American desert. Directed by Gus Van Sant, it is one of the more engaging films of recent years, though ultimately unappealing to mainstream audiences. Read the full movie review

interesting movie, by creativelcro

I watched this movie last night. Awesome shots. I think the two characters are the same person (Gerry). This is a metaphorical movie. In the end, Gerry kills part of himself. It's a universal metaphor of life, trying out new things, getting lost, fear of death, boredom... I wish there were a better way to convey it to the general public. This is not the way, as most people would not like it and not understand it at all...
