Wilson and Galifianakis are very much playing to type as slick charmer and manic weirdo, but the movie around them is much less predictable, veering off in strange directions and never finding a consistent tone.

In the end, Are You Here isn't quite funny enough to be a comedy, nor does it take itself seriously enough to be a drama. I would say that it's a dramedy, but the tone is so erratic that it doesn't really fit in that category either.

The film struggles to find a consistent tone between its attempts at broad stoner comedy, fractured family quirks and a more serious examination of mental illness.

We don't know what 'Are You Here' means, but we do know Owen Wilson is Steve Dallas, a weatherman. Or maybe a weatherman-ish boy. Or weatherboy-ish man. He needs to grow up.

The movie is the cinematic equivalent of dead air.

It's funny, clunky, earnest, and barely credible, but it's all of a piece.

"Are You Here" doesn't feel all there.
August 22, 2014
"Are You Here" proves a gently immersive, ingratiating, often witty character comedy with a pair of comfortably effective lead performances.

Everything about Are You Here feels like a bottom-drawer script idea that was put together too casually and carelessly.

A comedy with no laughs. A drama disconnected from any known reality.
