Adam Driver perfectly embodies Jim Jarmusch's signature deadpan style, putting "Paterson" right alongside the director's other hipsterish, character-driven comedy-dramas.

Paterson is one of the most relatable, sweet, and charming movies I've seen this year. While the story is simply and straight forward on paper, but the final result is quite unique.
