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.

This is a tough one, because the story is good, but it was hard to make it through it. I almost stopped the movie 1/4 way through, because the director seemed very green - holding shots waaaay too long, even the fade to blacks.

The kind of indie movie I should utterly hate, but this really works. It starts incredibly slowly, but this is intentional as the slow start juxtaposes with how the movie plays with time as it goes on. I watched this fully expecting to hate it for being the kind of indie movie I despise, but it turned out to be a very poignant exploration of loss.

Some call it slow, but I feel that it's pacing is meditative. The tone is ethereal and consistent, with moments of emotional spikes that are touching. A good example of visual storytelling, marred slightly by a sophomoric monologue that could have been done in a more subdued way, much like the rest of the film. Overall, it's a movie you follow along and let it guide you through time and experiences. I feel like my score will increase after another viewing, but it's a solid movie, nonetheless.

A total ape job of recent audio-visual trends in 'slow cinema' combined with loose genre elements and a vaguely Malicky attempt to link personal loss/grief with a bigger statement about time and mortality. When it focuses on the personal, it's a mildly effective, if obvious, mood piece that approximates an infantile quasi-hipster American take on this stylistic mode, but It falters when it strives for a deeper meaning, most embarassingly in a pessimistic monologue that recalls The Turin Horse.

Metaforlarla dolu bir film. Rooney Mara'nın eşi trafik kazasında ölür. Ve beyaz bir çarşafla dünyayı dolaşır. Tekrar başa döner ve kendini bırakır. Ağır ilerleyen ve uzun sahneleriyle fenalık geçiriyor. Bebeğim bebeğim hayalet sevgilim.
