Synopsis

You have probably seen him in the tabloids: Johnny Marco drives around in a Ferrari and has a constant stream of girls and pills when he feels like having a night in. Comfortably numbed, Johnny drifts along. Then, his 11-year-old daughter Cleo (Elle Fanning) from his failed marriage arrives unexpectedly at the Chateau Hotel and he is forced to confront his life. –Venice Film Festival

Somewhere is essentially a film about nothing; but then again, that's what's so great about it.

What was this film about? I kept waiting for it to start. Nothing happens and the pace would kindly be described as "deliberate" but more accurately would be described as "leaden". Crap.

There doesn't always have to be a story. You are free to play around with the medium. That's the beauty of film. If only people understood that side of it
