Probably one of the most inspiring, heartfelt films I have seen in a long, long time. The cinematography, the score and the beautifully portrayed acting makes me want to shout for joy! I could watch this film over and over, it's extremely well done. Richard Jenkins is a marvel and the Visitor is a true masterpiece, so excellent! This should set the example for the film makes of today, just a good down to earth film with no violence, no sex and no added vulgarities just for entertainment. WOW!
@gdawn6812 do you know how hard it is to deal with immigration? No matter how hard you work to make things right or to get you papers its impossible. Everyone has a right to live in peace and to make a life. No matter how honest people are to try to get their visas immigration makes the illegals become illegals.
this narrative that helps the educated elite excuse their role in turning the US into a fascist police state for their own profit and benefit
while propsing that homeland security prison guards making $10 hour to feed their families are powerful people that control their own and the country's fate'
racist classist propagandist piece of shit
when you want to assault poor African-Americans, always hire a foreign black dupe to help you sell your hate lies
@Amino2 Yeah because the guy doesn't have cancer and he is drumming... he's drumming meth? I don't get it. The only similarity is an old guy makes friends with a young guy. But in Breaking bad all they ever do is fight.
A great movie about friendship, when I watched it thats what rang through to me because maybe thats what I am serching for. I never got preached at about illegal immigration, I was enjoying the beat of the drum of friendship.
this movie tries to make excuses for illegal immigration. it doesn't matter if the immigrants are nice people, They still Broke the Law. there's reason these laws are there.
@FrodoBaggins1575 While that's true, life is often more complicated that. The question is not, "Is breaking the law acceptable or not?" but "What circumstances led these people to take that action?" No one WANTS to migrate illegally, but often times circumstances seem so dire and opportunities so limited that people feel it is their only option. It is way too easy to judge when you come from privelage and have been given opportunities others haven't, and I am as guilty of judging as anyone.
@rh1252 I agree with you that it's hard and i'm not trying to judge. But what about the Immigrants who are working hard to enter the country legally? is it fair to them that line jumpers get rewarded for breaking the law? one of the many reasons people should enter the country legally is because border patrol and other people have been attacked by illegals. i'm not saying all illegals are bad or have malicious intent, but some do and thats why we have these immigration laws.
@FrodoBaggins1575 I respect that. Honestly though this character should've gotten a Citizenship. He was working hard and even knew the language didn't hide in arabic neiborhood and try not to learn.
@FrodoBaggins1575 The movie doesn't make excuses - in fact the mother in the film clearly states it's her fault for throwing out the letter. The point is that we need firmer laws, but also fairer treatment once someone it found to be illegal.
Both of Penn and Jenkins are amazing actors, but Jenkins deserve the Oscar i think.. and Penn already won before, i thought its Rourke or Jenkins chance, and Richard Jenkins is really great actors, he seems forgoten in hollywood but his small character in every movie is great, i still remember he played as Jennifer Aniston's father ,i forgot the movie, and his latest project in "Dear John" is so amazing!
what a terrible over-sentimental trailer that makes the movie look like a cliched award bait. But the actual film is anything but that. It contains fully realized characters with wonderful subtle acting. Whoever edited this trailer should be ashamed of themselves for making it look like usual hollywood shit that is marketed to the lowest common denominator.
@ff7reborn You should be ashamed of yourself for being ashamed at a movie trailer. And it wasn't Hollywood shit, it was an indie that was bought by Overture. So now, shut the fuck up.
About movie: This is NOT the way people should be Treated by US Gov.!

Esta nao deveria ser a forma do Governo Americano tratar os imigrantes! QUE VERGONHA! Há terroristas no mundo, sim. Mas há ainda pessoas boas. DIREITOS (E DIGNIDADE) HUMANOS JÁ!
The ending was beautiful. Tarek left a legacy with Walter with the African drum after he got deported. =(( sad but happy at the same time. I know these fictional characters met up again..That would be my ending
continuation - . I liked the filme until the part I sow the message came to leave clear " you cant help people ilegal againts the rules, and peoples like tarik, that they consider allways bad bec a lot politic reasons, cant get easy one license to being. The filme could be better if had showed other kind of message.
But bad people if really wish be in one coutry get suport of bad politic and from strong criminal organization but who suffer is normal people that go to others countries trying to find a chance to get better life..
What a pity, the end of the filme was one deception. He didnt marry the woman , left she go back to her coutry, even knowing she will face problems. In the filme i got one message - he helped as he could but in the filme they didnt show the success of Tarik being in the coutry and heve chance to not go, bec they dont wanna show that this kind of "people " can get it easy.
What the fuck is with borders anyway. So you don't have a passport (Neither do I) But that doesn't mean that you should get arrested or beaten for just trying to enter another country. I say FUCK borders. The government should just remove the borders, all they do is cause trouble and make innocent people look like criminals.
@clay10h: Hispanic covers anyone from Mexico, Central America, South America, Cuba, Dominican Republic, and most of the Caribbean Islands, except for Jamaica and Haiti. Latino is similar but it only covers people from Mexico, Central America, Cuba, and Dominican Republic. Mexican only covers people from Mexico. So if someone is Mexican, they're also Hispanic and Latino. Latino and Hispanic are pretty much the same thing typically.
the real Visitors exist from ever on the Earth;are the Jews! see about teory of Zacaria Sitchin , Corrado Malanga ,about ;Alien Abductions, Ufo and Annunaki, Nibiru, Human & choosen people, GOLD & Economic Crise (NWO) !
While I know a few illegal hispanics from Central and South America, the ones that I see really abusing the system are the Europeans. They come here from a better economical position, don't have the desperate work ethic that Hispanics have and take further advantage because they can assimilate into society by not fitting the stereotypical profile of a illegal alien, i.e, a non-white. Why are all illegal aliens in movies portrayed by minorities? BTW,This was excellent movie.
This movie has lots of good things about it, BUT the characters keep saying the Syrian guy who gets detained "did nothing wrong." In the movie, he did nothing wrong to provoke the cops who stopped him. But he HAD done something wrong by staying in the country without a visa. It is not racist or unfair to deport people who stay without a visa. Any other country would (and should) do the same.
@judas28 Ok im getting in on this, Im pure blooded native american, and my family has seen OUR country be passed around from raise to raise when in all reality, its OUR country!
I was born in the richest country in the world. Came legally in the US at age 7 then was illegally cause my visa ran out and had to leave for 10 years. It sucks, I don't even speak my own language lol how messed up is this? America is not just people born there, that belongs to the Indians that they got rid of.
A very fine movie indeed. Artfully understated, socially relevant, apt messages. Soulfully endearing people...helping people. From the same talent that brought us The Stationmaster...another superb film.
I so wanted to see a brief epilogue of Walter queuing up to purchase a ticket to Damascus. Oh well. One can imagine...

this was a great movie, which i highly recommend to anyone who is thinking about watching it. the director set his sights on jenkins because "he has this wonderful everyman quality," which i think really powers the movie.
heyhas anyoneheard of this movie:it has a husband and wife livingin the middle of no where and these people come with masks on and at the end these church boys come and one boy touches the wife and shegoes aaaaaaaaaaaaah cant really explain it and grabs his arm and then its the end
I watch a lot of sci fi, fantasy horror movie, and sometimes I forget just how healthy it is for me to watch movies which are just about people, and the was of the world.
I just watched it on netflicks and was held by it the entire time. Well worth watching they should do a sequel the cast was surperb. Got me wanting to go to New Orleans this weekend to do something with my family I miss the vibe of a city especially the music Pre Katrina that was the place to go. Baton rouge could have something like that if the thugs would disappear.
As opposed to what the trailer suggests there is actually not that much drumming in the movie and also has a very inconclusive, sad ending. sorry that's just my opinion
We have to really get out of the Hollywood forumla of happy endings.
Actually do listen to me...this movie was a waste lol...no one knows about this movie for good reason
Many people don't know about the Legend of 1900 and it's a great movie. So what a whole bunch of people don't know about a movie. Doesn't make it any less good.
Godfather you obviously shouldn't share your opinions you make no sense and don't have the slightest constructive criticism at all. The comment was very immature. Anyone who watches this trailer don't take Godfather921 advice, this movie is great and is deep. The movie is mainly on Walter's CHARACTER. This is a great film that wasn't given enough attention. I am glad Richard Jenkins was nominated at the Oscars for his performance, it was awesome!

Actually do listen to me...this movie was a waste lol...no one knows about this movie for good reason...it had zero passion or real inspiration...he was here illegally and liked to play drums...terrible movie...thumbs down....MANY MANY better inspirational flicks out there...dont waste your time with this garbage
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I thought perhaps this movie but be one of those hidden gems cuz i never heard of it...turns out it was hidden for a reason...it sucks total ass..the story is horrible...the guys in the country illegally and then gets deported...what a great story, theres nothing deep/moving about this film...i was kinda curious tho if walter plowed tareks mom...other then that i give this film a 3/10 and i give a 3 for the only good thing in this movie...the acting
i go with UFC915. it is immature, rude. u may had thought u were right in ur own words, but ur only a flaw. not greater then those u acted to insult but ur below them, i give u a three maybe b,c of ur acting ;D
the subtlety in this film is incredible. the acting, the story, the music, they all move by increment until the very end. it will leave u with a haunting image of professor walter vale playing the african drum in the subway station. having lived in new york for almost six years mite have biased me but i really luvd this film.
This movie started out good, but I was disapointed by the outcome. As opposed to what the trailer suggests there is actually not that much drumming in the movie and also has a very inconclusive, sad ending. sorry that's just my opinion

In the world that I live in is called reality. Pussy has been selling for thousands of years and old white men fucking black pussy is nothing new either.
what a good film, just watched in today. got to say i liked how the old man came across. very funny to me and it just made me want to learn how to play the drums. its a flim to defo watch.
i was not born here in the U.S. but i didn't come here in an illegal way either i have no problems with illegals either. the only thing i have problems with is due to the fact of me being hispanic i get assumed that i'm mexican or illegal and i get discriminated. Well i've met a lot of europeans too who are illegal but the difference is they are white. truth is its just a lot of people being racist towards one another, but i'm not saying its all of them and this isnt suppose to be a racist thing
European illegal immigrants in the USA? ... please give me an example.... i cant for the life of me imagine that someone from europe (as you said: whites, so mostly central europeans) have the need to illegaly go to the USA... you can get there legally very easily, sorry!
@crzysc123 I totally agree. And for the life of me, I can't understand why on EARTH relations aren't better between Latinos and blacks in the US. I believe part of it has to do with many latinos not being 'minorities' in their own countries and then coming to a place where they are no longer the majority. I recently had a very similar reality to the white guy --where I met illegals and fell in love with them, in awe of how amazing they are. I don't think immigration will change, not really.
Very beautiful, subtle and touching movie, saying about power of friendship, which can appear in our life all of sudden, loneliness affecting us in different stages of life, callousness of immigration offices, also about the search for passion, loss and finding sense of life despite the different circumstances and our age.
richard jenkins deserved the oscar nomination. actually he deserved to win, but after nearly twenty years of having supporting roles he finally got the role that made him a star and not just a character actor.
you're defiantly right about that...jenkins was outstanding in this film..rightfully deserving the nomination but he's been producing good work since "north country"
Having an issue with illegal immigration is fine. Im not fond of human beings living in teh shadows of our society either. for numerous reasons. It's your tone. What part of TONE do you not understand? You dumbasses always come at the issue like the illegals are bad people. You'd do the same damn thing in their situation. Debating the issues is one thing, demonizing the people is another.
Well, don't mind me, just going to go make a seared tofu dish and have a vegan burger. Want one?
No, the US cant' take in every last immigrant seeking a better life. But at the same time, we should be doing all we can to aid those taht look to this country for a better life. that's exactly what America is about. brain dead, reactionary right wing nut.

I just watched it on netflicks and was held by it the entire time. Well worth watching they should do a sequel the cast was surperb. Got me wanting to go to New Orleans this weekend to do something with my family I miss the vibe of a city especially the music Pre Katrina that was the place to go. Baton rouge could have something like that if the thugs would disappear.

As opposed to what the trailer suggests there is actually not that much drumming in the movie and also has a very inconclusive, sad ending. sorry that's just my opinion
We have to really get out of the Hollywood forumla of happy endings.

@ Godfather921: You are indeed as UFC915 points out, immature and ill informed. This is a great film, folks. Netflix it.

Godfather you obviously shouldn't share your opinions you make no sense and don't have the slightest constructive criticism at all. The comment was very immature. Anyone who watches this trailer don't take Godfather921 advice, this movie is great and is deep. The movie is mainly on Walter's CHARACTER. This is a great film that wasn't given enough attention. I am glad Richard Jenkins was nominated at the Oscars for his performance, it was awesome!

I can stand that, maybe that could be true, but that doesn't happen everywhere.
That just happens somewhere where persons weren't loved by their parents, or didn't have a good education.

i was not born here in the U.S. but i didn't come here in an illegal way either i have no problems with illegals either. the only thing i have problems with is due to the fact of me being hispanic i get assumed that i'm mexican or illegal and i get discriminated. Well i've met a lot of europeans too who are illegal but the difference is they are white. truth is its just a lot of people being racist towards one another, but i'm not saying its all of them and this isnt suppose to be a racist thing

European illegal immigrants in the USA? ... please give me an example.... i cant for the life of me imagine that someone from europe (as you said: whites, so mostly central europeans) have the need to illegaly go to the USA... you can get there legally very easily, sorry!
Nogger86Germany 1 year ago
@crzysc123 I totally agree. And for the life of me, I can't understand why on EARTH relations aren't better between Latinos and blacks in the US. I believe part of it has to do with many latinos not being 'minorities' in their own countries and then coming to a place where they are no longer the majority. I recently had a very similar reality to the white guy --where I met illegals and fell in love with them, in awe of how amazing they are. I don't think immigration will change, not really.

Very beautiful, subtle and touching movie, saying about power of friendship, which can appear in our life all of sudden, loneliness affecting us in different stages of life, callousness of immigration offices, also about the search for passion, loss and finding sense of life despite the different circumstances and our age.

Having an issue with illegal immigration is fine. Im not fond of human beings living in teh shadows of our society either. for numerous reasons. It's your tone. What part of TONE do you not understand? You dumbasses always come at the issue like the illegals are bad people. You'd do the same damn thing in their situation. Debating the issues is one thing, demonizing the people is another.

No, the US cant' take in every last immigrant seeking a better life. But at the same time, we should be doing all we can to aid those taht look to this country for a better life. that's exactly what America is about. brain dead, reactionary right wing nut.
