Another Me

Good movie for people who loves mystery movies. Good acting n screen play...

That's it. That's the good of this movie. The direction is: I would make every scene feel as long and boring as possible. That's art. That's art. As a metaphor, like Babadook, "works", but only if you put it together yourself. And that doesn't justify how boring it was all the way through. The characters had so much wasted potential, but the script makes them do weird stuff that doesn't make sense. Its insulting. Example: The mother has an affair because she's in charge of the house and taking care of a sick/invalid husband. we could (or I could at least) understand her motivation. She really needs something to relax. Her husband can't do it and its completely depressed. So what she does later in the movie? She goes out "with the girls". And walks to a car stationed IN FRON OF HER HOUSE WHERE HER HUSBAND AND DAUGHTER CAN SEE, and starts to make love with someone else. In the car. In front of her husband. I just assumed: "Ok, she's doing it on purpose. She's annoyed and can't quit her husband, so she's forcing him to ask for a divorce, provoking him. Or she's just so depressed herlsef, she's doing it because she feels she's being a victim, and just wants to do something bad herlsef. Its desperation". NOPE. SHE JUST WAS SLOPPY APPARENTLY. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? Whatever. Its totally forgettable and at 1h 26m, it feels more like a 2h 30m film. Plus, other than as a metaphor, I'm not even sure that it makes sense.

A good story that went horribly wrong. The concept is interesting with good actors. Unfortunately the production is a let down. The scenes are too long to stay focused. Its clearly a drama and as a drama it does very well. I do not get the thrill bit in it. And was there for mislead when it comes to genres. For me ghost stories come in on a scale from 1 to 10: 1 for romantic and 10 for scary. As far as I am concerned it was a 2 based on some "ghostly" scenes. I still rate the film overall a 4, only because the actors are amazing. If you like a ghostly story with a somehow sad end, its probably a must see. If your looking for a Ghost story with a capital G starting on the scale as a number 6, Try to find another one :)

Life was calm for fay the girl with a lovely family and a routine sweet life until her nightmares become real and after an incident, her father becomes ill and she starts to see another of herself. The script starts quite well but very soon it becomes predictable and cliché. 'Another me' was the film debut of Sophie Turner which wasn't a shining debut at all. The cast is below average with really weak acts which in my opinion is the fault of the director. The music and soundtracks are mediocre but in a few cases irrelevant to the scene. The genre of the movie as mentioned in IMDB is Mystery and thriller, well, to be honest, it didn't thrill me at all. And the mystery was quite obvious for a regular cinema fan. Overall, 'another me' was a low-budget movie that grossed hardly half a million. It does not have anything special to be mentioned or any specific feature to be proud of itself. I can recommend it to you only if you are in the fandom of Sophie turner other than that do not try it, it's a waste of time. 🎥⭐ 4/10.

BOTH FILMS USE AN EERIE UNDERPASS FROM THE APT. HOUSE AND EVEN THE OUTSIDE OF THE APT. HOUSE LOOKS SIMILAR? Anyone else notice that? And also the theme of the girl being bullied by her jealous classmate. No not a great film, but I love it's atmosphere, and the music is particularly beautiful & haunting. Good cast, but kinda wasted-- Ifans and Forlani and also the wonderful Ivana Barquero, who was amazing in as the young girl in "Pan's Labyrinth", I would have liked to see more of especially . Was nice to see Sophie in another role after being a fan of "Game of Thrones"--She is rather stiff as an actress, but I hope she will improve with more experience.

This is an interesting pyschological "horror" story without any horror. The best way to watch this film (as any film) is cold. Faye Fay (Sophie Turner) is a high school girl whose perfect life comes to an end when her father (Rhys Ifans) gets ill. She has bad dreams and becomes darkly introverted. There are odd impossible things happening in her life she can't explain. She gets the female lead in "Macbeth" and creates an antagonist in her understudy Monica ( Charlotte Vega ) who claims she got the part as a pity party due to her father dying. About 35 minutes into the film we get an explanation of which details follow later. If you read any reviews or descriptions it might spoil that initial discovery. The film was done well. Not a Hitchcock masterpiece, but a film that keeps you entertained even as it moves slowly as Fay discovers....

I love the cinematography of this movie and the characters too and etc. Everything is perfect in this movie except the story and the ending.. but it worth to watch:)

This movie seemed like it would be great. Concept seemed interesting and I love pretty much every actor in this movie so how bad could it be? Well, turns out it can be pretty terrible. Firstly it moves so slow. Every scene seems to drag on forever. The movie feels 3 times longer than the actual run time. It's dreary. It's uninteresting. It's hard to care about the fate of any character. Basically if you love a good scary movie or if you love any of the actors in this movie, do yourself a favour and go watch something else. This movie didn't deserve the talent it wasted, don't let it waste your time as well.

The relationship of the teenager Fay Delussey (Sophie Turner) with her family is deeply affected when her beloved father Don (Rhys Ifans) has multiple sclerosis and her mother Ann (Claire Forlani) starts a love affair. Her teacher John (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) invites Fay to perform the important role of Lady Macbeth in a school play and her schoolmate Monica Meldrum (Charlotte Vega) is jealous of her with the choice. Soon strange events happen to Fay and she believes that Monica is the responsible for the acts. But her father discloses a family secret about his ghost daughter. "Another Me" is a slow-paced, boring and predictable ghost story. This is not the usual genre of the great director Isabel Coixet from "My Life Without Me", "The Secret Life of Words" and "Elegy". Despite the great cast, director and cinematography, the flawed plot does not help the performances. Why Fay's doppelganger decides to haunt her after so many years? How her father could know that Fay should not look at her face? Why Fay insisted to meet her doppelganger after her father's advice? The conclusion is totally predictable. My vote is five. Title (Brazil): "Meu Outro Eu" ("My other Me")

I get the concept of Doppelgangers, like 1997's Pafekuto Buru (Perfect Blue), and it's sort of inspired American Adaptation Black Swan. I get the concept of missing siblings as in like The Tale Of Two Sisters, Uninvited, The Unborn. And this movie tried (and failed amazingly) to use these concepts to sell a horror-like thriller, but the result was a very predictable, horrible, boring movie. It's not like these concepts were badly executed is that the movie is painfully draggy, like every scene seems to last 2 hrs longer than it actually does. A bit of a more character developing, a more emotionally deep relationship of Faye and her boyfriend, a deeper rivalry with her competitor... even a flying dog for god's sakes... ANYTHING to turn this slow-slow paced movie into something not boring as in "what the hell was I thinking watching this?" boring. A great cast, great performances (with the little they were given), great photography, and a mediocre underdeveloped ghost story that wouldn't frighten or even surprise a kitten. Avoid at all cost.
