Jeremiah C Realism at its finest. If you want to cry because there are people in the world who are inexorably suicidal, this is the movie. But there are no big lessons, and there is no light shed on the psychology of someone who would want to do this. This movie is another in a completely saturated collection of plotless movies that seem to exist for the sole purpose of saying saying that this exists. And we get it: such people exist. People are suicidal, and it’s tragic and unfortunate. But this movie adds nothing to the conversation and offers no light for the viewer.

I first caught it last year online with the 2023 Atlanta Film Festival (where it won top prize for audience favorite). Loved it last year and was even more impressed upon second viewing. It's a deeply moving/affecting look at mental health, suicide/family bonds and empathy. The film explores two brothers- Jake the younger who is asked to transport his older suicidal brother Pete home to Seattle for a family intervention. Daniel Diemer and Philip Enttinger are terrific as Jake and Pete, two siblings on a road trip to bond/heal and connect with each other. Writer/director Sheridan O Donnell shares a powerful message here on family/brotherly bonds and healing. This is the kind of intense family drama I thought they didn't make anymore. One of the best films you will stream in 2024. Highly recommended. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/26/24 Full Review suzanne d Definitely a tear jerker, but really, really well done.
