Jonathan
Jonathan is a successful and ambitious young man who works in an architecture firm. John begins his day strangely when he wakes up every morning, and his breakfast is prepared with a video telling him about the rest of his exciting day. John is possible to have a night owl and a bit of anarchy. Perhaps both of these characteristics will live in the same body and work through careful planning, until things change to something of collapse.

It's not flavorful enough to support the full run time, but the material periodically succeeds in strangeness.November 12, 2018
A competent, light, sci-fi drama featuring two brothers living in the same body.November 13, 2018
Downbeat to the level of "inert."November 15, 2018
Psychological drama has mild language, sensuality.November 14, 2018
Jonathan, which serves a double dose of Ansel Elgort, is sure to satisfy fans of the sci-fi genre in a gently challenging way (even if symbiotic multi-consciousness isn't your thing).November 14, 2018
Unfortunately, the film's structure works against our emotional involvement. The problem is that we see the story almost entirely from Jonathan's perspective.November 15, 2018
A cool high concept set up ends up going almost nowhere. Every single time it threatens to get interesting, things grind to a screeching halt.November 15, 2018
The movie, itself somewhat torn in sensibility, permits itself an easy out.October 23, 2018
Taken on its own confidently crafted terms, "Jonathan" is an intelligent, absorbing tale that provides an impressive showcase for "Baby Driver" star Ansel Elgort.April 24, 2018
Succeeds thanks to a credibly bifurcated performance by star Ansel Elgort.November 14, 2018
The clinically distancing production never forms a meaningful bond with its audience.November 15, 2018
This intriguing and skillfully wrought indie science-fiction tale has the feel of a low-key "Black Mirror" episode.
