Highway is a fun, fast paced movie about two best friends exploring life, love and their friendship. I enjoyed this film so much - although some parts of the film do seem a bit pointless (like alligator boy) the characters and the actors casted to play them, make the film a very worthwhile viewing. It deals with issues such as drugs and prostitution without making big, screaming statements about how people should live their lives - it just tells it how it is! I think a lot of people will relate to it, or at least appreciate the humour and elements of emotion in it. There is also a certain vibe between the 2 male leads (Gyllenhaal and Leto) which could have been explored as sexual chemistry or subtext, but instead was depicted as almost brotherly love - which was fine, but personally i would have preferred the movie minus Selma Blair's character. I recommend it!
