    • Trivia
      New Zealand only allows left-hand drive cars if they are old; this is why Max drives such an old vehicle, since the film is set in the United States.
    • Goofs
      The scene when Wally runs from the hotel and takes the Grand Wagoneer was supposed to be set in Florida. However, Florida does not have mountains and Interstate 10 is in the Panhandle, which is over two hundred miles north of Tampa.

    Mia Isaac, You're a rising star!
    Frankly speaking, I only decided to give it a chance because Mia Isaac was in it. I have recently seen her perform in 'Not Okay' and I was thoroughly impressed, for a novice, she did incredibly well and rightfully snatched all the headlines.

    Thereupon all I wanted to do is to find out whether her outstanding act in 'Not Okay' was just a fluke or was it the commencement of a promising career. And after witnessing her perform in two films one after the other; I can safely say, that she is indeed a special talent. One, who would surely flourish if given proper guidance and finer scripts and directors to work with.

    Coming back to the film, it's like any other road trip movie you have previously encountered. It is fraught with fun, light-hearted moments, a great lead pair dynamic, and above all, a story that is neither too fancy nor too deep but it would reverberate with a lot of people out there. It will make them introspect, and will encourage them to self-evaluate!

    I have my complaints though, regarding how this story concludes itself. Man! That ending surprised me, I did not see it coming, and I am having difficulties fathoming this. Yes, it's a bit unconventional, and has a sentimental value to it, that I understand and appreciate, yet, to me, it all felt too abrupt, too mundane for my taste.
