Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: A film of uncommon originality.
Fresh: Brutally truthful, funny and touching in nearly equal measure, this semi-autobiographical, micro-budget road movie lacks any of the obvious bells and whistles that even indie features seem to need nowadays.
Rotten: It's difficult to see how this picture -- essentially chronicling a long car trip -- could mean much to anyone but the Wagners and their friends and relatives.
Rotten: Ultimately the film's insights and observations seem not so much universal as self-absorbed and solipsistic.
