    Not Your Typical Soldier Coming Home to A Pub Crawl Story

    Subtle performances and carefully crafted dialogue give this "soldier coming home" drama a twist; all the way to the end. Clever camera work exposes the journey of a one man wrecking crew's reappearance in a small town. Solid acting by Grimley and Mercer tell the story of self loathing and debauchery.

    Well done

    Nice to see an independent movie taking on this kind of subject matter. You don't see many of these dealing with the conflict of war and the outcomes. I really enjoyed the journey that they took you on. Great cast and dialogue...definitely worth a look!

    This film unfolds beautifully

    I had no idea what to expect from this film and was very pleasantly surprised. This was a simple film of a journey inside a journey, a Pilgrim's Progress if you will. Someone searching for peak moments in their past which only opens up a flood of what is far less pleasant. This film unfolds beautifully as the main character goes from place to place falling deeper into the abyss.

    The music works all the way through and the strong cast really delivers.

    Great job to all the storytellers on this one

    Really great soldier coming home story that's so much more than that. It felt raw and real thanks to the camera work and great actors. The performances never felt forced, and the indie style camera work really aided with helping the film feel real and not "hollywood". I enjoyed this movie a lot and appreciate all of the storytellers that were a part of this one.

    Fresh Perspective

    A fresh look at the old story of the soldier coming home--a look that feels honest for the generation in which we live.
