Highway

i don't know what everyone's complaining about, a funny movie with pretty people...works for me. but i think i know a bit...lots of people who watched this have seen two movies they think are great;

it won't give you spiritual awakenings like donnie darko, it's not as dramatic as requeim for a dream.

thankfully. somebody's even complaining about 'happy ending'...pfft.

i give it a seven just to promote a rare modern movie that doesn't make me puke with music video cuts and dramatic substance for once.

plus i can't recollect seeing a movie that would (even slightly) use the times of grunge as it's background.

It starts off strange, then sucks, then gets good for a while, then alligator boy comes into the picture. I think Jake Glyllenhal is an awesome young talent, but he couldn't carry this. This movie was pretty well filmed and has some truly memorable scenes, but overall the dialogue was dumb and unbelievable. Also, the soundtrack should have consisted of songs from that time period instead of new punk stuff. Not horrible, but unfortunately pretty bad. 5.5/10

What's going on with the low ratings of this amazing film? A film filled with quirky scenes and outstanding character bits, this movie has plenty of stuff to keep any film buff intrigued and happy. The two leads do a great job of playing off one another in their madcap escape from inevitable danger, while meeting up with a very odd assortment of characters, such as Jeremy Piven as an off-the-wall drug dealer whose monologue is one of the more dynamic in recent film history; or John McGinley's off-beat role; or Selma Blair's warm and caring nature; or the strange alligator boy; or Seatle's grunge scene; or lots of clever lines of dialog handled quite well by Jared and Jake. This film deserves a round of second opinions, because it's a hell of a lot better than the reviews suggest.

I thought this film was very good it had such a good mixture of adventure,love,sadness and humour i think it had something for everyone in there. Jake Gyllenhaal and Jared Leto work so well together their both very good actors and played their parts very well this was definitly one of Jake Gyllenhaal's good roles.

Look, this is a good flick. It is not a mind bender, it is not going to leave you questioning your own immortality, nor is it ever going to be a classic. It's just a good movie to watch. Leto is really good as "The God of Fu*k," (so funny) and Gyllenhaal is a great sidekick. Totally watchable, more than one time. Good flick to just chill out with at 2am.
