Couldn't help but wonder how often Casey Affleck was checking his phone under that sheet, and how much of that was his brother taunting him with pictures of himself in a metal batman suit. I liked the afterlife-as-cinema vibe, a silent observer subject to the dilation of montage and long take, trying to pull some meaning out. Will Oldham's long monologue drops the quality but the last third of the movie recovers the fumble.

I'm probably overrating it but this is the type of film I want to see more of in contemporary filmmaking. Slow-paced but it's only 90 minutes, and if you can appreciate cinematography, then it's well worth it. Great sound too but its greatest strength is the depiction of time. The only part I find heavy-handed is the scene with Will Oldham, but that's still an enjoyable scene--beautifully restrained otherwise.

Hauntingly beautiful. (Sorry, but it's true) It's something that has to be felt and engaged emotionally with. Loved the music and the sound design, the editing that jumps in time and the painfully long (that some would call slow) moments and how it plays with the relativity of time. Side note: I was glad that Affleck's face was under a sheet the whole time. Fuck that guy.

Intriguing meditative fantasy is difficult to unpack on a single viewing, and it's unclear whether there is really anything substantive here - it feels like the last 5 minutes of 2001 stretched to feature length, and Lowery seems to be borrowing from the Kubrick playbook in terms of shot choices and composition as well as a coldly alienating tone. Lingers to the point of irritation in the first half; a clunky exposition monologue in the middle doesn't help matters before an intriguing finale.

Ethereal and transcendent, A Ghost Story is a profound meditation on death, grief, and time that looks spectacularly lo-fi and uses its pondering pace to great dramatic and emotional effect.

This might not be for everyone. It's very unusual these days for being very quiet and filmed at a slow pace. I was mesmerized for most of the movie and it went quickly for me. It's basically a love story. Think of "Ghost" combined with "What Dreams May Come" but again very slow and quiet. Dialogue is sparse but meaningful. Rooney Mara and Casey Affleck were excellent.

I adore this film, but it will be a tough sell for some. The central conceit is that Affleck's ghost is him under a sheet with eye holes cut out of it. He occasionally actively haunts someone, but he mostly just stands around. There's another ghost next door that he talks to occasionally. This makes it sound silly, but it's most definitely not. It's a really melancholy meditation on time and the super small amount of it we get.
