Roadtrip !!! Two brothers take a road trip. Jake and pete head home to face the family and deal with their issues. Pete has made (another) suicide attempt, and there are many problems to be resolved. Along the way, the two brothers squabble over dumb little things. The middle part moves pretty slowly. They stop at some waterfalls and scenic things along the way. It's good, but some of the emotional scenes felt a bit contrived. Keep an eye out for jk simmons, from the insurance ads.. from burn after reading. He's dad, who thinks he has it all figured out, but is probably doing more damage by trying to control everything. And the younger brother is going too easy on his brother. Where's the discussion about going to rehab?? Written and directed by sheridan odonnell. This all feels like someone's personal life story. Maybe their own or a family member's addiction story.
