Plot Summary
Set in 1974 Texas, three teen siblings struggle with the death of their father and try to live with their abusive mother. When one of the teens is sent away because the mother can't cope with his autism, the oldest of the siblings devises a plan to get their brother back and embark on a life changing adventure across the Southwest in their deceased father's station wagon. In their attempt to find their grandmother's home thousands of miles away, they find themselves confronted with detours that ultimately slow them down, but thrust them into a coming of age journey to be remembered.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Many of those involved are at the early stages of their careers and may be excused. You wonder, though, what Ms. Arquette was thinking.
Rotten: Co-director Chad Waterhouse's script is filled with melodramatic contrivances.
Rotten: A collation of pseudo-profound dialogue and cameos by compassionate strangers, Exodus Fall is a road movie in which, once out of Texas, nothing bad can ever happen to our children.
Rotten: It's all broad strokes, resulting in performances (especially Arquette's) void of subtlety -- more the rendering of types than characters.
