KEVIN C Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch play a couple of road workers who develop their strained relationship over the long isolated days working on the road. David Gordon Green directs this different kind of buddy movie. While I enjoyed this, it wasn't exactly what I expected. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/01/23 Full Review isla s This is a film which is both amusing and sobering/sad at times. I liked the main characters and how they interacted. Their painted as very human people, with their talents and issues and the like. I found scenes in which they look around the site of homes destroyed by fire to be quite touching at times. Its an interesting film - I suppose partly about loneliness and the sense of isolation in one way. The camera oftens zooms in on fairly small things, elements of nature present in the area. There's a bit of a philosophical feel to it, although on another level, some of the conversations between the two workers were pretty basic I suppose but the general direction and tone of the film deepens as the film continues. I preferred Paul Rudd's character (Alvin) over Emile Hirsch's (Lance) I suppose, although I liked some of Lances dialogue but I suppose I saw Alvin as the more thoughtful one. However, one line I remember that I did like from Lance was - 'can't we just listen to the silence?!', so I suppose their both mindful/philosophical in their own ways. I also liked that the film seemed to have tinges of both red and orange in scenes a lot - fire related colours, of course (which is relevant, given the setting of the film). Personally I'd recommend this film but if your not keen on slow(ish) paced, character driven films then this won't be for you.
