Excellent, a Must See

Orla Zuniga

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

I thoroughly enjoyed Home Again and would highly recommend this movie to anyone loves films that are truth to the power. The storyline depicted a honest view of what happens to the lives of several people from different walks of life who are deported back to their place of birth. The arc of the various stories were compelling, the soundtrack was excellent and the actors did a great job in portraying the complexities of how lives are drastically impacted when you are sent home to a country that really is not your home. The plot was interesting in that the main characters seemed distinct from each other at first but the interweaving of lives that occurred later was a surprise and really well done. After seeing this movie, I had to give my mom a big hug for having the fore-thought to getting citizenship for all her kids in our non birth country done at an early age so that our family feel secure no one in our family will be deported at the whim of the government.

I saw this movie when it came out and I loved it. I saw it recently on rogers on demand and I had a few friends over who never saw it and they loved it too. I couldn't believe that they never heard of it but oh well. My favourite actor in it was the guy who played the Don who was the badman. I liked the girl from Fresh Prince too, she was nice and you don't see her too much in movies. The British kid I have seen in some other movies too I think Selma, the one about Martin Luther King last year. He was good. This story made me cry because I have a cousin who got deported and it reminded me of him. I found it true to life and there is a lot more deportations happening all over, not just back a yard. I hope more people watch this movie because I think that if people heard more about this kind of story they wouldn't be so hard hearted to people who find themselves in this situation.

I entered the theatre with an open mind and no expectations and I walked out teary eyed with feelings of immense compassion not only for the characters but for the real people who face and live similar situations in the Caribbean - such is the great writing and portrayal of the characters by the actors. I felt the pain, the injustice, the fear and the fleeting moments of joy.Shot in Trinidad with the storyline based in Jamaica, kudos goes out to the director and DP for the ability of showing generic landscapes that doesn't give this fact away.Some people have taken needless issue with some Trini actors who do not sound Jamaican. To this I say, not only Jamaicans live in Jamaica. My take on this is that there is immigration within the islands. People live in other islands for different reasons so therefore I had no issue with this.This movie is definitely a must see and I hope the producers do a sequel.

A terrific, must-see movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat. the film engages your mind and emotions with superb acting, great production values and a gripping storyline.Some people who see the Caribbean solely as beaches and sun and all- inclusive resorts may be surprised by this slice of life.The movie raises questions about choices, justice and citizenship.But it is, in the end, a great drama. It doesn't preach. It tells the story of three young people who made bad choices, including, in one case, a stupid favour for a friend. A movie well-worth the money and time.
