On his 18th birthday, TJ receives a key from his estranged ex-con father, unlocking a timeworn '68 convertible and a challenge to drive across America -- in hopes of repairing his family. Supported by a band of loveable oddballs and held together by humor and grit, TJ discovers that sometimes the longest road is the fastest way to home.

Here is a film where it’s better to travel hopefully than arrive, but the journey is pleasant enough.

'Cruisin' and playin' the radio, with no particular place to go.' Actually, this good-looking road-buddy movie goes to California, but it's drama-lite.

I have rarely seen a movie where everything about it should make me like it, yet I’m about as apathetic as I can be.

The trailer showed promise and the story left me wanting more, but the film didn't deliver. Why wasn't his mother ever shown? What happened to the girl that hit on him in the beginning? What happened when the friend got home? It looked like rage on the car at the end, but then walking off into the sunset as buddies? So confused

This film has a great premise , probably very relateble to many people in the same Ir slightly different contexts. Basocally 2 friends travel cross country together in the protagonists estraged fathers ood cinvertible to find him. This film had a well written and well executed script. by its cast and director. . One of those sleepers where you give it a chance ...but will keep it playing. Recommended . In fact the plot is almost identical to a new release in 2025, Sacramento. Even the convertible the 2 friends travel in.

kinda pointless story, absent drunk criminal drug addled father leaves tommy a car with a sealed steel box in the trunk and an address in california. tommy is supposed to deliver the car and meet his father. the best friend tells him he wants to go on the adventure, then gets mad because tommy won't open the box because he wants to, then calls his over bearing dad to pay for a bus ticket home in a huff? some besty. long drawn out time filler scenes of driving. meets a girl who needs a ride, 2 a-holes give them trouble at the gas station and it goes nowhere. gets to california, drops the girl off and goes to his dads house and beats the car up with a bat while screaming at his father like a 12 year old girl. the next scene he's driving back to meet the girl, the end????????take a nap instead.

Before logging in it states this movie is not available in home or in theaters. How am I supposed to rate a movie when it's not playing?
