Monolith

I'm Italian but I have not been part of it. The film is not perfect (many mistakes by the plot and the actors) but I was very convinced of the concept of the story, taken from an Italian graphic novel. The protagonist might be less stupid, but the things he does go hand in hand with the plot context. The film deserves, a great innovation in Italian cinema, and a good bet for foreigners.

This movie has its issues but it also has entertainment value. If you enjoy endless vistas of desolate mountains then even if you don't care for the film itself, the heavy reliance on breathtaking shots of the multi-coloured Utah (likely the Paria mountains).

Beyond the geology and macho car, the kid is good and the hopeless terror of the protagonist is sometimes genuine, other times humorously not.

The technology is not enough with who does not have enough brain to function. That's the massage.... In this movie....

For a certain situation to happen, a lot of things have to go sideways. And you have to understand that it doesn't have to be logical, it just has to bring us where we end up. So the main character going there, is terrible, but to some extend acceptable. What is unacceptable though, is her behavior with a kid in the car.

Which is one of the points leading to a certain situation. But really there is no love lost for someone like that. It's tough to root for someone or feel for someone like that. Then again it's all about the kid isn't it? Yes and you could also argue, it's just a movie. And that's where it loses me or my interest. So the tension is almost completely gone, maybe if you accept certain things, you'll be on the edge of your seat. But I do doubt it very much

This car is so smart that that it has every safety feature possible, it can even differentiate between the adult and child passengers by their weight....and yet there's no feature that keeps you from locking your kid in the car?????? That part was just too unbelievable to overlook.

This chick is without question, one of the dumbest people in the world and has no business traveling unaccompanied with a small child. Because of course when I travel with my child through a blazing hot desert, I make sure he's in a furry bear suit. It had a lot of promise but ultimately you can't get through so many "I can't believe she's that dumb" moments.
