a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Theo is an Inuit from the Arctic. The elders have a nightmarish dream of the angry sun. They send Theo to deliver their message to the elders of the south. He arrives in NYC clueless to the modern world. He is befriended by homeless Bruce Lee fangirl Chloe (Dakota Johnson) and her circle of friends. They go to the UN but are taken to jail. They find an ally in Monica (Mira Sorvino).This is one odd indie. I'm sure its heart is in the right place. The central environmental message is important but I fear the unrealism only detracts from it. Dakota Johnson is homeless like a billionaire is poor. The quirky humor is ill-fitting. At times, it's really heavy handed which also detracts from the central message. It's too bad because Theo is a really compelling character. A better writer could bring about a better message movie. This has too many awkward moments.

Theo (Theo Ikummaq) is an Inuit who loves to walk on the ice, with the sky above him. But, the elders of his region are VERY worried. The climate seems to be changing, getting warmer, and this upsets the balance of nature. This is true for Inuit, animals, and plants. Therefore, after having dreams of a giant killer sun, the elders send Theo on airplane to New York City. Once there, this relatively young man is to "find the native elders" and hatch some plans to save the arctic. But, alas, when Theo makes it to Manhattan, no one seems to know where the elders are. Happily, Chloe (Dakota Johnson), a homeless but bright woman, takes him under her wing. This includes leading him to a secret hideaway which she and a few others call home. After much discussion, these folks are convinced Theo's best chance is to talk to the large groups of "elders" at the United Nations. Unfortunately, they reject his plea and, when Chloe gets mad, the young lady lands in jail. Fortunately, a smart lawyer (Mira Sorvino) comes to help the whole group, including making plans to raise funds for Theo to broadcast his concerns. Then, tragedy strikes. Will the world know that all peoples must work together to combat climate change? This fine film has a Crocodile Dundee feeling, as Theo is very much an outsider in the big city. But, there is a far more serious tone, as Theo's message is extremely important. Even so, there are light-hearted moments, with Theo exhibiting a natural charm. Johnson, Sorvino, and the rest of the cast is quite wonderful, too. The scenes in the Arctic are beyond beautiful in their harsh ways while the NYC setting, costumes, great script and careful direction complete the movie in fine fashion. Want to see something sweet, moving, and unusual at the same time? Theo and Chloe's journey is a most excellent adventure.

Theo is an Eskimo living in the Artic. Sent to New York to deliver a message to the people of the south. That is all I will say about this movie as a resume. However behind a simple story, stand a tragedy. The message Theo brings is simple but also very complex and most of us will miss it and that is the tragedy. It redefine the term Human in the society we are currently living in. This movie will bring you questions, no doubt, that only you will be able to answer on a personal level while on the other hand it concerns all of us and all of us should try to answer theses questions too. The movie is fun to watch, it will bring you laugh, make you think a lots about the meaning of our modern society... the South, it will also bring your tears. So prepare yourself. At the end of this movie I was shredded, there is so much to it, but it was a little bit rushed... It felt like the director run out time to complete the movie. I would have welcome more time to make a smooth transition. A simple story, a gigantic message (will you miss it?), do not miss this one.

A Good script, a touching story and a simple way of telling the story. Do not expect the greatest of the movies but, can expect: simple directing, simple starring and a simple movie. It makes one think. Good job from Dakota. Must See In a time when everybody wants the new gadget, the more fashion clothes, the super car, this movie makes us think, just for a while, that we must take care of the planet, so that our grand grand Childs still can live here. Movies should do at least one of the following: entertain, make us think or makes disconnect for a brief moment in time. This movie makes us think, but both Dakota and Theo, makes us disconnect.
