  1. Talented actor Zach Braff, a favorite with many on the role of the hapless doctor in the popular television series, is also a good screenwriter, producer and director. His new work was the comedy-drama "Wish I Was Here" tells the story of life's twists and turns of the average American Aidan Bloom. At thirty-five years, Aidan never reached great heights in acting career and forced to accept any offers. He is married to the woman he loves Sarah, daughter raises religious and cocky son who loves to teach life, as well as taking care of his brother, who lives in a trailer on the beach and an aging father.
    But the Aidan did not find its place, has not found his calling and it makes him unhappy. And everything seems to be normal in the life of Aidan, but the sudden illness of his father, the lack of good film roles, as well as problems with children pulled hard and forced his brother Aidan torn apart. But in a moment he realizes that you just need to live and enjoy every moment, which leads to an exciting adventure the whole family.

  2. The film's story tells about the life of one man who has a family and two children. The main character for a long time was thirty years old. The man had seen a lot over the years, but to this point has not decided what he wants from life. At this point, when the main character had children, Aidan noticed that there is an opportunity to engage in the development of kids. Daily man planted children are certain rules of conduct and always taught to keep their word, and the rest of the guys gave school education. Suddenly, in the family of the protagonist crisis began, much money was missing, which is affected for life characters. Next Aidan Bloom immersed in dreams, he imagined educated children to earn money and support themselves. But it was only a fantasy, because in fact the whole family is left without financial support from his grandfather, who so generously cared about their children's education and pay for private school. Now the boys will have to go to public school, where will learn along with other peers without additional tasks and attention of educators. The protagonist realizes that it would be better if he devoted himself to all their personal time to the upbringing and education of children. Aidan Bloom did not even think that the apartment will complete chaos when the children will be engaged in the home.

    Review: Wish I Was Here (2014) - a good movie, I should say about it. He looks nice - the picture, a rare, does not irritate the eyes - and the development of the plot is quite interesting to watch. Note that the acting in the film above average. In general, the actions of the characters believe. Yes and empathize them, after all.
    Despite the quite typical American heroes and apparent simplicity, the film tries to raise questions about the current problems of infantile society, how mature is happening already grown - overage - children who are used to a long time to rely on the family life. Issues of education and growing up, facing the person who's still not too grown and moral - it's pretty thin theme that reflect the picture is not so simple. If you take the overall impression of the film, it is - an interesting movie that will leave a slight impression. But at the same time and cause to reflect. At least for a moment.
