This is not a good film.
But it's not a bad film either.
Consider the blank canvas hung in the museum. Questions arise: What is this? Why is this here? Who did this? Why did they do this? And most importantly, do I care about this?
These are the type of questions you will be left with after seeing `Gerry.'
The film is painfully slow to watch, the dialogue unrewarding, the landscape more interesting than the cinematography, the characters undefined, and the plot full of holes.
And yet, the film sticks with you and makes you think... just as the blank canvas does.
After leaving the theater, you truly contemplate the strange trip you just took through the middle of nowhere while you draw parallels to your own adventures.
And for these reasons the journey is worthwhile... the film, worth seeing.
