Leave your thoughts about Never Here.
| Georgia StraightCraig TakeuchiAlthough there are several ingredients that don't quite jell as a whole, the overall concept and individual elements remain compelling. |
| The Hollywood ReporterStephen Daltonever Here wears the outer clothes of a crime thriller to cloak a more haunting, disturbing, open-ended rumination on voyeurism and identity. |
| The ListNikki BaughanA hypnotic study of the increasingly fluid notions of identity and privacy in a world where insidious technology is blurring, if not entirely eroding, traditional social boundaries. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyThough it drifts off into the ozone at the end, for most of its running time, "Never Here" is a low-key but effective psychological thriller which flirts with that looming issue of the social-media age: privacy, and the invasion thereof. |
| Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallNever Here is a moody inversion of the stalker genre, less of a thriller than a Lynchian thinker. Thoman has a bright future and we'll say we knew her when. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawThoman coolly creates an oppressive atmospheric charge, as well as a deadpan satiric view of a certain kind of chillingly affectless conceptual art. A disquieting and mysterious mirage of a film. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenArtful and atmospheric to the max, Never Here is a study in personality disintegration dressed up as a whodunit. The film marks an auspicious debut for writer-director Camille Thoman. |
| FF2 MediaAmelie LaskerWhile I think the execution could have been more graceful, Thoman's illustration of an artist's trajectory is compelling, and for that I think Never Here is definitely worth a watch. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakThoman spins a suspense thriller with all its genre underpinnings around Miranda to take the control she’s always carefully ensured was hers away. |
| Village VoiceAaron HillisUp through the ambiguous ending, Thoman withholds the story’s bigger puzzle pieces, which is satisfying when the focus is on Miranda’s quietly traumatic unraveling. Yet as a mystery, Never Here teases too much naturalism to get away with the haunting abstruseness Lynch does in his masterful return to Twin Peaks. |
