Slow start but hang in there,worth the watch,you'll be glad you did

I didn't expect much from this movie, but I was pleasantly surprised. No, it's not a big budget, CGI, or agenda driven picture, it's just a nice story with no gratuitous sex, violence, or language. How refreshing.

It would be nice if more movies like this were made today.

The story is a beautiful reminder of the good side of humanity. Two men have a strange encounter, such leads to an transcending act of kindness. I really like it.

The relationships are nuanced and believable; the acting is spot-on; the story is intriguing; and I liked every single character. It's a "buddy movie," but their relationship isn't a silly one, they're genuinely friends. The dialogue is believable, the pacing is perfect, and the music is lovely. There were a couple of small plot issues that were a bit far-fetched, but they didn't detract from how much we liked this movie. The reviewer here who said it was a similar theme to Night at the Museum must have been watching a different movie. This is an adult film with an intelligent story, and a wonderful break from the ridiculous claptrap coming out of Hollywood these days. Bill Fitchner, you need to write more movies!

It kind of draws you in and keeps you there. The characters are immensely likeable and almost invite you into their town and make you feel welcome. There is humour, curiosity, and it isnt all about the main story. I thought it was about people sticking with people, no matter what, always wanting to believe the best and help. i really enjoyed it, it is difficult to pigeon hole and that is an excellent thing! The production values are very high, it is a well crafted movie. All round, watch it, you will be pleasantly suprised and may feel a little happier in these rather depressing times.
