Critics Consensus

It covers familiar territory for Sofia Coppola, but Somewhere remains a hypnotic, seductively pensive meditation on the nature of celebrity, anchored by charming performances from Stephen Dorff and Elle Fanning.

...one of the great cinematic portraits of a city.

Somewhere has its funny moments, and its clever moments, but the blankness and passivity of the central character make it peculiarly remote, as if you were watching it from a million miles away.

Somewhere is like a slow-moving bullet with no clear aim.

1.5/4

Sofia Coppola's 2003 Lost in Translation was such an unblinking masterpiece -- one of the two or three best films of its entire decade -- that it's a shock to witness the near-worthlessness of Somewhere.

4/5

Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere starts off unlikeable, but those who persist will be rewarded with a moving examination of the importance of our relationships.

Sofia Coppola is a gifted director: she has clear and present control over mood and milieu; she gets the performance she wants out of Dorff and a much more endearing and revealing turn from Fanning. But the script is undercooked.

'Somewhere' goes nowhere. It treads in similar territory as Lost in Translation but lacks the magic that made Lost in Translation work.

A great Hollywood film, shot at the Chateau Marmont. Its meandering, plotless story follows a leading man as he goes about his life spending time promoting films, posing for a special effects mask, and spending time with his daughter. Sofia Coppola has an insider perspective to really make this film great, and it is.

A rare movie that captures what its like to be famous, and hate it. The lead actor does a marvelous job. People don't like this movie because everyone wants to be famous, until they are.

One of my fav of Coppora's film. This is so heartwarming, and I adore Elle's innocence in this film.
