The family McGregor must have decided that a dad/daughter road movie was just what we all needed, so Ewan and Clara set about manufacturing this really rather unremarkable and tedious drama. We gather from fairly early on that their's is a strained relationship and he has a lot of ground to make up with a daughter who has just emerged from the ER but a few hours earlier. Of course all the details of that duly unfold and the usual smattering of entirely predicable familial baggage is also unpacked for us as this trundles along. Luckily (for us) their truck breaks down and that offers us a chance to meet the entertaining tow-truck driver (Kim Zimmer - easily the highlight of the whole enterprise) and as it's fixed, un-named daughter sneaks a few snifters with "Kip" (Jake Weary) before dad saves the day and on they travel. She's a bit prone to toilet stops, and on one she unknowingly encounters a little spider that leaves quite an agonising gift in her nether regions. Luckily, again, we have a local hooker on hand who knows just how to apply the ice and yep, more tarmac and white lines.... Road movies work if you care about the passengers. I can honestly say that I didn't at all here. I'm a bit weary of these stories that just show us yet another dysfunctional relationship being played out against a background of desertion or addiction or adultery or just plain boredom, and I am afraid that much of the tortuous and over-delivered dialogue did little to engage me further. It didn't need a big budget, the production is fine - but the story and both performances here are just yawn, yawn, yawn. Sorry.

It's not that bad. I really appreciate her dedication to her habits. Had to skip some of the yelling.
