Based on the comic book "Here" by Richard McGuire
Chronology
A generational story about families and the special place they inhabit, sharing in love, loss, laughter, and life.. It was first published as a strip in the comics magazine "Raw" in 1989, and was expanded into a 300-page graphic novel in 2014.. Richard’s father at one point early in the film names several cities that he states are along the Pennsylvania Turnpike, when in fact these are all cities that are along Interstate 80 in PA, which hadn’t even built at the time.. [from trailer] Richard: You know, if you like, you could spend the rest of the night here.

One thing in its favor is that it has the gaul to follow through
There are several things not in its favor: Robin Wright’s forced laughter, shallow stories, hammy segues, no real conclusions to the intertwined stories. However, the most concerning is the overuse of CGI to the point that it is almost an AI movie. The opening sequence, the sharp focus of characters up close to the "camera", the artificial fire in the fireplace, how the far wall will disappear so we can see characters waving goodbye to each other. If AI feature length films are in our immediate future, how long until our lives resemble Black Mirror’s '15,000,000 Credits'?
By the end I’d cried three times and laughed twice
This would work so well as a stage play told in linear order. The bones are there: the set pieces, the single camera view, the soliloquies. After half an hour I was glad I saw the movies for free. However, you would best be waiting to see this without extra charge on a streaming service.
Then again, I have the same view about Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, so
