[quote=Anonymous]Just got back from watching "Deliver Me from Nowhere."

First of all, it was well made and well acted.  Not particularly poorly written but not well written.

Secondly, I'm a casual fan and definite admirer of Bruce Springsteen, but not a worshipper or hardcore fan.  So, maybe I'm not the target audience?

But, it was completely lacking in a plot.  It made me think of the presentation I heard in high school by a successful novelist who talked about how, when choosing your story line, you should always make sure you are focusing on the time in history when two lines cross each other.

This particular movie seemed like there were no lines crossing at all.  No conflict.  No vividly drawn portrait.  No illumination of a complex character.

It really seemed like it was more about hero worship than making an interesting film.

Secondly, what was the point of the relationship with the woman he dated?  Just to fit the kissing / sex scenes in, since Jeremy Allen White is hot?  It just made him look like a total ass.

I would much rather have seen more about his childhood / father / mother / sisters (who were not characters in the movie.)
