I'm not sure what the movie thinks its purpose is; at the end, we are pleased with the outcome but not enlightened. But there are moments I will remember, and Cardone evokes a real sense for the deserted night highways. Go to Full Review

So contrived and credibility-straining that it hardly satisfies. Go to Full Review

An intriguing ensemble piece about strangers on the highway, dragged down by a lame religious serial killer subplot. Go to Full Review

04/08/2012 Had potential but it is apparent from early on that it won't realise it. Concept was interesting, but from the beginning the movie drifts and is quite dull. Ultimately seems contrived. Decent cast do their best, but are humstrung by the dull plot and listless direction. See more 04/02/2011 I LOVED this movie! I'd see it again. See more 01/02/2011 Several unconnected stories are held together by loose story threads, eventually intersecting on a barren highway. The whole thing reeks of made-for-TV movie and crawls along at a snail's pace. Occasionally the actor's do good with the material, but not often enough. See more 03/21/2010 Cringe inducing dialogue and predictable plot along with some oversimplified politics make for a barely watchable film. It's a shame because it's a decent cast. sherilyn fenn is in this, for all you peakers out there. See more 06/01/2008 One of my favorites. This finely crafted movie details events leading up accident outside Ozona. See more 02/03/2008 Well casted and a pretty good film. See more Read all reviews
