    Beautiful movie ? Huh?

    I really have no feeling about this movie. It's not too boring but not funny and not worth watching as well. It's a mediocre production n tons of review here rate so up about this movie.

    Great scenery, horrendous acting

    If you looking to do a road trip on the west coast and want to see how that could look this is the movie for your. Otherwise skip it.

    The camerawork is great and from there it is all downhill. The acting of both lead characters is so bad that it is cringe worthy at times. The film always get's better when other characters, all women, are with these two men. All the women deliver good performances but unfortunately were are spending time with two main characters that have no chemistry at all and the script fails to give as any reason why these both are actually friends. We never get why we should root for them. Tommy Dewey also is just miscast. He always looks a little devious so he never fits into that character he is supposed to be.

    A NON-BRO movie finally!

    I enjoyed watching this mature movie about 2 close friends taking a road trip and go through some deep self discovery. There's some great footage of the California coast which works well as a backdrop to some interesting encounters and deep intelligent conversations. The writing is more sophisticated than your typical clichés out there and connects you to the characters at a more mature level. The acting is good all around and had some very good vulnerable moments that kept me engaged.

    I can see from the bad reviews that some people think having deep conversations about relationships and love is boring. I suspect they were expecting more BRO talk and juvenile behavior.

    A good watch.

    This is not a comedy so it has been wrongly categorised, but I really loved this movie. Very relatable characters, beautiful cinematography and a plot that many of us can relate to. Perhaps a younger audience might not appreciate it as much since they haven't got the life experiences that these guys have which make them relatable to the over 30's in the audience. Definitely worth a watch.

    Not even slightly charming. The main actors are attractive......that's about it.

    I watched this because of the title. I like to watch film where Portland is part of the character, and also to be a detective to locate where the different scenes are filmed. The last few minutes could have been any where in the world. I'm going to put myself out there and say that the film makers had a really good time along highway 101. By the time they got to Portland they just wanted to go home.
