While traveling from Green Lawn, California, to meet his wife and son in Red Ridge, Nevada, the driver Jeremy Stanton gets lost in a secondary road through the desert following an old edition of the Road-Aid Travel Guide maps. He calls the Road-Aid operator Judy, who tries to give directions to her client. Meanwhile, the police are chasing the criminals that have committed a bank heist in California. When Jeremy's Mercedes Benz runs out of gas, he finds an isolated gas station in the middle of nowhere that accepts cash-only. When Jeremy opens the truck of his car, he brings out a bag full of money, disclosing the reason for his road-trip.

Proper Planning is the Key for a Successful Road Trip

While traveling from Green Lawn, California, to meet his wife and son in Red Ridge, Nevada, the driver Jeremy Stanton (Dean Cain) gets lost in a secondary road through the desert following an old edition of the Road-Aid Travel Guide maps. He calls the Road-Aid operator Judy (Ashley Scott), who tries to give directions to her client. Meanwhile, the police is chasing the criminals that have committed a bank heist in California. When Jeremy's Mercedes Benz runs out gas, he finds an isolated gas station in the middle of nowhere that operates with cash-only. When Jeremy opens the truck of his car, he opens a bag full of money, disclosing the reason of his road-trip.

"Lost" is probably the lowest-budget movie I have ever seen. The story hooks the attention of the viewer until the very last scene, is flawed and predictable. First, it is annoying to see Jeremy Stanton wearing necktie in a totally stressed situation through the heat of the desert. How can a man feel relaxed wearing necklace? Second it was quite obvious how Archer was tracking him. Last but not the least, why exchange his brand-new car for an old truck in a desert road without any other vehicle? My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Lost – Sem Saída" ("Lost – Without Exit")
