ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made
Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
