Writer/ director Joshua Michael Stern has crafted something more than a mess and something less than a film that hits home. Neverwas never does quite win us over.

...unlikely to find much of an audience outside of the film festival circuit.

This is the kind of movie where a madwoman's outburst leads her to throw a mug that just happens to be filled with gold sparkles -- which can then be photographed cascading down on all the adorable loonies, in slow-motion.

Top CriticSeems rather a waste to use name actors and then not have them actually do anything.

Never has so much talent come to so little because of a screenplay that's so adrift and aimless. Eckhart plays a psychologist with enough personal psychoses to keep himself preoccupied for a lifetime.

At a time when most films lack subtlety, it is rare to find one as delicate, wistful and tender as 'Neverwas.'
