    The film is about a bunch of dead people in some kind of limbo which is really just a road and a desert. One of them trying to find his girlfriend who committed suicide after his death- not much more to it than that. The characters drive around a desert smoking dope to seem hip and rebellious and so on, trying to find her.

    The dialogue is so clicheed and trite that I wanted to kick the tv within 20 mins. More driving and smoking dope and thats about it. A complete waste of a good idea- a movie about limbo needs a big budget and some creativity. What sounds like an interesting metaphysical journey is just another detour through the land of Formulaica. Avoid unless you are suffering from insomnia.

  • Weird but good

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    I really enjoyed this film, I thought it was unusual and quirky and that the storyline was a brilliant idea! Some of the characters were just great and the fact that it was so weird just added to it's charm. There were a few flaws in the plot and the ending but all in all it was a really refreshing film to watch, unlike anything I've seen before.

    This is a film that I heard about a long time ago and never got to see on the big screen. So when I found it here I was excited and hoping it would live up to my expectations and it did.

    Story has a pace that is relaxed. This sounds silly but it leaves the viewer left with a warm comfortable feeling.

    If I was to pitch this it to a friend it would be a donie darko at slower pace but without constantly making the viewer question what is happening to keep them interested.

  • Amazingly Brillient!

    This has to be one of the best films i have watched this year! I loved the whole concept of life beyond death. The 'rules' which applied to this other world were appropriate to the way these folks had died. It is just a tragic love story which takes loads of twists and turns. All actors were amazing and believeable. I would recommend anyone to watch this. It is, in a weird way, a beautiful film.
