I know the movie has a lot of positive press, and it was an interesting premise, but it was a bit graphic for me. Also, the woman who played his next door neighbor the one who plays a prominent part in the story, really got on my nerves...especially the way she said his name, and she said it all the time. I guess it really wasn't my cup of tea. The last Tom Hanks movie I saw The News of the Wiorld something like that, I wasn't crazy about either, but I think I liked it more than A Man Called Otto. Have you seen either?

That next door neighbor was really irritating.

I really liked A Man Named Otto. I thought his Hispanic neighbor was adorable.

She bugged me. It was nice of her to make him food though.

@snowy22315 I hate to look forward to a movie and it isn't what I thought it would be.

I really liked News of the World. I thought it a good story/plot, held my interest, and wound up with a happy ending. What did you not like about it? I usually don't say that about any films made today. Did not see Otto. From the promos he seems like an angry Forrest Gump to me, lol.

@dgobucks226 I was hoping she would go back with the indians. The Indi an dialogue was the best part of that movie I thought.

@snowy22315 I see. I was curious to see if Hank's character would be successful in bringing the girl back home and how it would affect her. I was happy to see him sort of adopt her at the end of the film. Although I kind of figured that would occur. But still left me smiling. I guess "gripping" is in the eye of the beholder

I have never seen this movie called the man called Otto. But I heard a friend narrating about it. That's very stunning my friend

I haven’t seen either movie. I guess I’m surprised you didn’t like it because so many people have raved about it. But it doesn’t really look like my kind of movie.

I have not seen either of them. You were looking forward to seeing Otto for a while, too bad it didn't live up to your expectations, but with Tom Hanks, there will be another movie released that may be more up your alley.

Moat of rhe movie was just Tom Hanks being cranky and his neighbors being annoying. Just not a fun movie to watch, not for me.

@snowy22315 - It's not something I want to watch, I think this movie would make my husband depressed.

I loved it and have seen it twice - once on the plane and then at our clubhouse. It's good we're all different I guess.
