Hearts in Atlantis - review

In the present day Robert Garfield is a photographer who having received a baseball mitt in the mail, attends the funeral of a childhood friend and hopes to meet with another.

As a young boy in 1960 Bobby Garfield lives with his widowed & absentee mother and spends his summer with his best friends Sully & Carol. But when Ted, a strange older man moves into the flat upstairs, Bobby creates a strong bond with him and can’t help but be intrigued when he’s asked to be on the lookout for the ‘low men’.

Described as a sci-fi drama, I was interested to watch this movie, but now that I have I’m not sure what I made of it.

Starring Anthony Hopkins I was expecting this movie to grab me and keep me gripped and although I kept watching until the end, I wasn’t quite sure of the point of the movie.

Quite forgettable.
