Review of Reach Me (2014) by Aline X — 30 Dec 2014

Reach Me will likely be remembered for its all-star cast, but not much else. It's another fairly empty entrant into the multi-character/multi-story line/everything-converge-at-the-end style that's been done to death in recent years, particularly around the indie scene, and to varying results.

Reach Me might embody the genre through-and-through, but it doesn't go anywhere with its potential or leave the audience feeling any wiser, or better, for having watched it. There's no room for real, tangible character growth, leaving most of the players jumping from points rather than following a better defined arc.

It's worth a watch, but most won't reach out for it again.
