Jonathan
In an exciting story about a young man named Jonathan, a successful young man working in an architecture firm. Jonathan wakes up every morning and prepares his breakfast meal with a video telling him everything about what will happen in his day. Jonathan is the night owl and perhaps a little bit of the chaos he carries, but the only problem is that these two species inhabit the same body as Jonathan, which expresses the careful planning that will collapse later.

A competent, light, sci-fi drama featuring two brothers living in the same body.

Succeeds thanks to a credibly bifurcated performance by star Ansel Elgort.

Unfortunately, the film's structure works against our emotional involvement. The problem is that we see the story almost entirely from Jonathan's perspective.

Downbeat to the level of "inert."
November 14, 2018
It's not flavorful enough to support the full run time, but the material periodically succeeds in strangeness.
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.

This intriguing and skillfully wrought indie science-fiction tale has the feel of a low-key "Black Mirror" episode.

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).

The clinically distancing production never forms a meaningful bond with its audience.

Taken on its own confidently crafted terms, "Jonathan" is an intelligent, absorbing tale that provides an impressive showcase for "Baby Driver" star Ansel Elgort.

The movie, itself somewhat torn in sensibility, permits itself an easy out.

Psychological drama has mild language, sensuality.
