First off, there's no major drama, no gunfights or murderin' going on, so don't expect it. This is one of those gentle but very powerful movies that will stay with you for a while.
For that I give it a 10. When a movie makes you text your friends afterwards to tell them to see it, that's the best you can ask for now isn't it?
This is part road movie, but more about a friendship from different worlds, and one of the most subtle movies about refugees I've seen. It doesn't get heavy handed or even political, just a little view into humanity, one most on imdb may never see.
OK, I loved Val in the movie, but there were so many continuity problems it got rather stupid. I liked the war vet toughie who gets a call to help a friend. His character played well with what he had. The problem was, the movie ran from his story of a missing friend to a poorly constructed action movie.
The filming was good, the acting was mostly good. But the plot/action devolves into into the unbelievable halfway through.
I personally write this one off to the writers strike.
The action sequences were some of the worst that actually had a budget that I've ever seen, beyond unbelievable. Like halfway through they stopped reading their own plans aloud.
Worth watching? yes, if cheap. Sorry guys, nice try!
