PodBill Just what I expected

ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Reno Rangan I was not overwhelmed by the overall film yet a very enjoyable film for the wonderful direction and the beautiful character displays. The first thing I remembered was 'Paper Moon', but it was when 'Last Ride' meets 'Natural Born Killers'. Clearly, it dealt with its own concept, but I won't deny the influence of those titles this film has. So I believe the writer has been inspired by them.If you like the road films, then you might enjoy it as well, even though you're not desiring to give high marks. It begins when a 13 year old boy who lost his mother embarks a journey with a stranger to go and live with his grandparents who are on the other end of the country. On their way, the two struggles with their differences, especially in the conflict of interest to take such a trip. But they end up developing a close bond which is at one point comes to tear them apart.It did not live up to my expectation. Actually, I was not having any expectation because I came to know about it a while ago before finished watching it. Without the character development how much a story going to impress its audience, but this film did by letting them to figure it out by themselves. There is a twist and other turns in the tale, but everything's very easy.So the film kind of interested me, just for keeping everything simple and telling a tale with a good speed, but obviously not an original or anything extraordinary. Josh Duhamel was amazing, his role along with the kid's make you watch it. Especially after the 'Spotlisght', every a film with priests in it freaks me out like the one from this. Anyway, this is not a must see, but not bad to ignore completely.6/10

stox180 OK so here goes,I'm normally not a big fan of these kind of movies but there was something about this film that made me keep on watching.The start is a bit slow but keep on watching it to get sucked in to this great little film. Yes I agree it is a bit predictable with the story line but if you can see past that you are onto a winner.Both Josh Duhamel and Josh Wiggins had a strong character play in this film and I'm looking forward of seeing more of these actors.so as a summary: slow to start and slightly predictable but once you get sucked in its a great film to watch on a quiet evening. 8/10

Radomir Ivanov A road adventure that brings together two completely different characters. A man that is constantly haunted by his past and has many flaws in his personality and a boy whose innocence collides with real life. Opposites at first glance they create a powerful bond.The story is simple and that's where its charm is. It doesn't pretend to be more than it actually is. It doesn't try to distinguish right from wrong, nor it tries to judge any of the characters. It presents a short moment in time and leaves all the conclusions to the viewer. It has a bit of European feel to itself, especially in the way the scenes don't rush one after the other but rather flow into one another. The dialogues are good and they reveal not only the plot but the characters as well.The performances are very good, most notable the one from Josh Wiggins. He looks very natural in his role and shows a lot of potential for future success in the field of acting.Lastly, but not least, the photography and the scenic sets, combined with the beautiful music, give a sense of tranquility and peace.

Perry Bee I sort of stumbled across this film, and thought yeah it has got an OK cast, the ratings on IMDb (specially the amount of 1 votes) were sort of on the low side, but glad I gave it a go.It has a very simple story line that guides you along from the minute it starts, and I really got caught up in it, the music was partly to blame, but it was filmed with a feeling most high end Hollywood products would kill for.Great performance by the whole cast, especially the kid, and seeing it has a low score of 6 on IMDb, I gave it a 10 as it deserves a way better rating than it has. If you like a film that gives you that chill kind of feeling, with out blood and guts purely because of the great acting and simple but very effective story, than you will love this film!10 out of 10
