danielbethune Must see. Don't listen to bad reviews. 2 guys stuck in the dresser. They truck broke down. Do they get out or do the not. Great movie. Great great great great great movie!!!! I think the acting was great. The story is one I haven't seen and is 10 stars. Definitely not a waste of time here. I don't know what else to write. All I can say is great awesome great awesome great awesome great an awesome movie. I watched in twice in a short period of time.
David Arnold Scenic Route is the story of two best friends, Mitchell and Carter (both excellently portrayed by Josh Duhamel & Dan Fogler respectively)....two guys in their mid-30s who have decided to take a road trip together and use the time as sort of a "male bonding" experience. Unfortunately they end up getting stranded on a remote desert highway, and it's not long before what was supposed to be a trip of self discovery, actually turns in to a fight for survival from not only the elements & being stranded, but also from each other.Now you may think that this doesn't read like an exciting story, but you would be wrong because it's actually much more than just two guys getting stranded. Admittedly the story may seem like a simple one, but it has much more to it and it delivers well by bringing suspense, thrills, and sheer captivation with it. Even the way the movie starts brings it's own surprise because when you watch the opening scene, you actually think you've seen the outcome of the movie. When the time comes, however.....well, you'll just have to watch it to find out for yourself to see what I mean.The pace of the movie is just right and it never becomes boring as there is always something about it to keep you watching. The story develops really nicely as it goes on, right up until it gets to the very thought provoking ending (which will actually stick with you for some time).Scenic Route is definitely one of those wee gems of a movie that comes along once in a while and actually restores your faith that there ARE some great movies out there in amongst what seems to be a sea of mediocre Hollywood big budget remakes, sequels, and spin-offs.Fantastic movie and well worth watching.
leonblackwood Review: This is a crazy movie about 2 buddies who get stranded in the desert after there car breaks down. There relationship is questioned after they start telling each other the truth about how they really feel about each other. In some ways, the movie does have some depth, but the arguments between each other are a bit ridiculous when you think about what situation they are in. The ending was a bit strange, but in all, it's a watchable movie that would have been much better if it was taken seriously. The performances were OK, but I think that it would have been better if the guy without the crutches was played by someone else. In all, it's an average movie that you will end up sticking with, just to see what happens to the stranded buddies.Round-Up: Josh Duhamel, who became popular after his role in the Transformer franchise, was a great choice for his role, especially the ending which added a mysterious twist. Dan Fogler usually stars in more comedic roles which was why I didn't think that he was the right choice for his role. That's not to say that he put in a bad performance, but he did become a bit annoying after a while. The attention to detail wasn't that great, but there were a couple of moments which were well written and thought out. I recommend this movie to people who are into there buddy movies about 2 best friends who are stranded in the desert after there car breaks down. 4/10
nelson joshi Scenic route: What happen when some one told u about things u would not prefer to know about you, u might panic when people talk to you about those moments. This movie is all about friends and family when i said friends it's about best friends who know everything about you (all stuffs u really not want to discuss or i can say u keep hiding from Ur self ) you know Ur best friends knows every thing happening or happened in Ur life and when someday they discussed that here started the big fights . This movie is all about that 2 best buddies in 30's went for a scenic route start talking then arguments about how other person changed with time ...then reality check for each other ...they start telling each other things which individual not wanna know and it turns in to fight and most imp they were stuck in a desert . Well written and nicely directed.The acting, dialog, and desert scenery combine to make this an awesome movie. Josh Duhamel simply superb Acting as he delivered his role as Mitchell perfectly and Dan Fogler is also superb . What i like most about this movie was dialogs (simple conversations turned in to argument and then fights and then again simple conversation) Well things happen in beat friends and then they become normal and that's all about this movie was . Few scenes are amazing and nicely act by both actors ...well i liked the movie and this movie is diff from other movies if we talks about Ending The way they start arguing and then fight ,then it become serious and blood shed then they realize what they did was wrong and then apology.
