The 2 main detectives were horrible actors. I couldn't take them and it was hard to overlook. i would rate this an 8 but they brought it down. It was a good movie though, main characters were great, (Father and Reporter) If you can get past the over acting and try hard detectives (especially Johnny Holm) you'll love it.

Having good intentions is not always a guarantee of making a good movie - unless you are good at what you do. 'Still here' looked promising on paper but comes in as a difficult watch on many levels - including, messy editing, direction, photography, and a poorly realised script - featuring very few convincing situations and many unfocused characters. It comes across as another excuse to push the agenda of the unhelpful law and its big bad white guy type policing...offering little more than supposition to back up its accusations. Then, as if attempting to add some form of balance, one of the white detectives is shown in a detailed scene having an unexplained change of heart - but of course, his epiphany results in changing nothing, next we see of him he's right back to his nasty ol self. These types of character inconsistencies tend to continue across the board. Most acting is from the over the top school of expression - while some of this might sometimes work, overall , it's ultimately tiresome. The story is claimed as based on facts but these 'facts' come across as manufactured and mostly unbelievable (especially the resolution). Pity, as it offers the odd good line, and might have been better if given a sure-handed approach. A pile-on of endless foul language adds nothing to the general proceedings.

This is inspired by true events. Monique Watson of Brooklyn goes missing. Only her family seems to care. Christian Baker (Johnny Whitworth ) a reporter doe his own investigation to help locate her. He gets a clue and runs a story claiming the police are not doing their job. It is interesting on how we accuse folks on loose circumstances and coincidences.Well done. I just did feel it. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

This is a hard film to watch. It makes you feel, and makes you think whether everyone is caring for one another enough.

This movie is filled with raw emotion and symbolism that will have your eyes watering throughout. The family relationship is very well tight all around. We need more stories around resilience and family like this one. I enjoyed the story and the beautiful acting. A timely film

Superb acting from a largely unknown (by me, anyway) cast. Engaging and involving story. I have to say I'm always more compelled to watch movies based on true events. This one held me throughout. As a side note fans of Zazie Beetz (the one face I DID recognise) should be aware her role is of a 'Cameo' nature and lasts only a couple of minutes. Great film.

Based on a true story - except it's not. What story ? It's made up nonsense. It's a hodge-podge of a white deranged liberals view of society. Such a shame as a real case could have been good. Police are ignoring a missing kid - (because the family is Black!). We get a statistic totally out of context on the screen that states about half a million kids are missing in the US. (But neglects to tell that 99.9% are back within a few hours). Anyway, It starts with the missing girl's father pathetically trying to put 3 flyers up and then attending a pointless 'group talk' meet, (which crops up again and again throughout the film) - rather than doing something about publicising his daughters plight. When the white liberal hero journalist tries to interview the father, at his project high rise apartment he irrationally gets angry about it and kicks him out wanting no publicity (Because he's Black and thats just part of the Black experiance no doubt??). But the Journalist manages to 'jive talk' with a agressive black gang outside to get a lead on a suspect which he writes about. Now in the heat of publicity, the corrupt police are forced to act. However, the suspect is Black and therefore doesn't survive Police Custody. The corrupt Police then try and arrest the Black Brother of the missing girl. And it goes on and on - the Black father is a cardboard character who gets sidelined to blabbing impotently at group meetings and other useless impotent behavour, while the focus is on the hero White liberal Journalist who does the job, gets beaten up etc... and pounds the pavement to dive deep to find out what happened to the girl. You simply can't get over how conceited and biased the film is when watching it.
