Audience Member This was a surprisingly decent indie Canadian film about four young guys who head out on a road trip to California only to have their car break down in the middle of nowhere and their only consolation is warm American beer. Each one of them sets out in different directions to try to find an alternator for the car and we follow them on their adventures and meet the interesting characters that they come across. Some of the characters are a bit too stereotypical, but the incidents are funny and the four actors who played the main characters were all convincing in their roles. My neighbour loaned me this one to watch so I don't know if you can find it in video stores any more but it wasn't a waste of time. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
