Wander Darkly

POSITIVES…

  • If you’re looking for a different kind of love story, then this just might be for you.

  • The fast pacing is unrelenting in this, but it helps keep you thoroughly engaged.

  • Powerful performance by Sienna Miller as Adrienne, who is put through the ringer here.

  • Diego Luna is solid as Mateo, whose character is a good counterpoint to Adrienne.

  • The visual transitions can be pretty clever, and keeps you on your toes.

  • As a story about a troubled relationship, I appreciated the fact that this movie brought up issues and topics that might be worth addressing for couples out there.

  • With a narrative that plays around with the perception and concept of time, this is an emotional experience that is unlike what you normally would see.

NEGATIVES…

  • Tests your patience with the plot, especially when it starts to feel like it’s getting repetitive.

  • Narrative style might be too disorienting for some.

  • There are plot cliches and conveniences that keep this from being great.

  • Depending on your point of view, the final act may or may not work for you.
