I love it
so different from anything I've ever seen, very slow and feels like its set in real time almostacting is amazingfeels realistic and draws you into the lives of the charactersI get how it is probably not for everyonehowever the people who like good movies that are deep and have underlying symbolism and meaning, this is amazing, mostly because of the acting being on point

Great
I really enjoyed this movie. It was great to see the characters, Zac and Eva progress through the movie. The main reason I watched was for Timothée Chalamet and I was not disappointed. I recommend watching as it was good in general, however, there could of been more development as to why things were the way they were.

Where's the plot?
Everything in this film happens in the last 20minutes, with no explanation, rhyme of reason. A good cast, and good acting, shame about the script...

"I have an idea"
------spoilers-----/A family live a pure, Amish-style, isolated existence, with their farm property surrounded by a high fence. (Think M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village", stylistically, but with better cinematography and without any "twist" ending).It turns out the kids have the power of teleportation. The Mother accepts the children for what they are, however, the Father very sternly disciplines their "play", fearing the consequences should they stray into the outside world.All four leads are very good indeed.The two siblings, Kiernan Shipka, as "Eva" and Timothèe Chalamet as "Zac", are very good. Grant Bowler, as the Father, "Daniel", has by far the hardest role, trying to strike a balance between protecting his children from both the world and themselves, however, his rather brutal, religious zeal is never explained properly in the context of his children. As they assert their independence by "teleporting" it rather suggests the fence is more to keep others out than to keep them inside.At one point early on in the piece Eva narrates; "What is this place? Why are we here? It's almost like a dream..."As a metaphor or a meditation on coming of age and learning to let your children go, it certainly has something to offer. Slow but with some great images (although the internal shots are too dark), it is very well made, however, I was waiting somehow for something more to happen. The final scene, with the pair finally fully asserting their independence, was too heavy-handed for me personally.
