There has been made lots of roadtrip movies,and this one was just as unremarkable as the others,but it shows how to make a film on low budget,with a good storyline without glitter and glamour.
its about an old disabled army veteran grandfather, his more or less related relative grandson, a totally lost girl with some adhd tendencies,and a young african american straycat that fusions into the group by incident.. there is a kill,so the law and fbi are doing their best to retain the fugitives.
i like the way this film show the rural kind of usa,with dinoparks and other strange features popping up and flashes in your face wereever you are on the road.
good filming and decent story, and a very nice jeremy irons for once.
i think ''the straight story'' was great,and this one is a good addition to the folk-road-trip genre.
