Such a good movie with a sense of very loud yet silent love. It gives you classic feels and takes you to place where you feel free, your soul is free and free people around.its a Very different story yet one problem there should be one last scene. I mean at the end you so want that last scene and all you get is end credits rolling.
Utterly predictable young adult romance. All the emotional depth of Riverdale, with about the same budget for eyebrows, the same artistic passion for two-dimensional character development, and the same target audience in mind.
I'd have rated it a 5, but the Burning Man locale is so arbitrary, I'll deduct a point for that. The artistic license for setting, generally, is absurd. The Reno airport wouldn't recognize itself in this movie. I get the whole middle-of-nowhere idea, but it sure doesn't have to start there. Let this poor emo sap run out of cab money by Wadsworth -- which he damn sure would -- and start it there. So many lazy details. The writers might have at least visited the area with their eyes open to get a better sense of what's actually there.
And the male lead is supposed to be some guitar virtuoso? The playing's OK. No one's going to fall in love with it, unless maybe you're a young, rapid-cycling manic British girl with absolutely no problems who has taken her wild-child diagnosis and decided to run with it.

Going into this film I had not read much about it, and I typically like to know what i'm diving into. But I decided to take the risk and give it a watch. The more the movie's plot began to fill in, the more you got to know the main character Eric and the more you felt connected to him. Eric was a big reason why I stayed glued to the screen. He gave such a genuine feel to the movie. As so did the girl he falls in love with "Jo". She is a magical person with such a rich personality, and so much mystery. The two of them together created an essence that was addicting to watch. By the end of the movie, I was very pleased with how it went. I would suggest giving it a watch, especially when you have some alone time to really get sucked into the plot.
It's a theme that has been done many times before, and that's ok, but in this case, the acting is ok, but the script is kind of cheesy. There are moments in the movie that it could of been good, but it was not.
A completely boring movie full of stupidity. If you need to travel thousands of miles for a girl then better to change the girl.
