Draco W Oct 1, 2018 Pros I think the old man was the best part of the movie. I think his artwork is cool too. Cons She doesn't notice him following her around? She should have followed through with the police. You can't have someone follow you around the city like that even if it was innocent. He was clearly going through some mental problems which are not his fault, but you never know what people with mental problems are capable of if they're pushed. I mean, we the viewers know Simon is harmless but she doesn't and in real life we would have to assume the worst. And then she spots him at the park doing it again and she does nothing. I think it's ridiculous and it would never happen in New York. The movie is a little slow at times and it just ends without satisfaction. The side story with the ex-husband is really not interesting and would make no difference if taken out of the movie. The romances also felt unconvincing. All in all, the movie has a few nice moments set against the backdrop of Manhattan and it has the potential but it's all unsatisfying and none of it believable. See more

George W Jan 25, 2008 What Adrift in Manhattan possesses in spades, if not insight or innovation, is human misery and isolation.

What, was Kate Winslet busy? See more
