Coming Home

A great cure for insomnia

Coming Home is the story of a woman and her father, who seems to be losing his memory. Throughout the story we see her taking care of her father&apos;s worsening conditions, and we hear about his past in the war - he lost a son in vietnam.

Then, she needs to go back to the city to accept her promotion, leaves her father, then comes back home because he needs her. The end.

If you aren&apos;t sleepy already, maybe this film is for you. My mother was watching it on TV the other day, and even she did&apos;nt like it, even though it was sort of like a chick flick. Unfortunately, I can&apos;t remember any of the actor&apos;s names as I was very eager to leave the living room after watching this garbage. And then there&apos;s the &apos;subtle&apos; sound of the harp playing in the background whenever there is a new scene, for no reason.

This movie tries so little, I&apos;m surprised it even got past the script stage. If you want to watch a real tragic character study, I suggest something like Wonder Boys. Unless a movie about an old man and her daughter trying to figure out what to do with him piques your interest of course. None of the characters are believable either.
