Review of Interstate 60

Interstate 60 (2002)
8/10
The road of life that we all have to travel. A great film with just the right touch of humor.

There's a short scene where some hefty cursing takes place, but it's actually necessary to bring out a point in the film.

Without giving away the story, the gist is that this young guy is unhappy with his spoiled life. He wants to find his own path and find out what the truth is.

At his birthday celebration in a restaurant, he makes a wish before blowing out the candles. He wishes to know what path to take for his life.

Gary Oldman plays the supernatural character that helps teach the young guy and makes his wish possible as they travel down a road not found on the map. Basically, it's the road of life all of us must travel, but exaggerated. Like an acid trip without the acid.

One classic scene is when he pulls into a town full of lawyers. Just hilarious.

Acting, casting, directing, everything was great in this film. I forgot I was watching a movie it was so enthralling.

On the one hand it's supernatural, but it's so much the way life is that it isn't unbelievable. Very unique.

If you're a movie buff, you'll love this film. Terrific life lessons. Lots of famous actors. I rarely see films that I would buy, but this is one I want to watch over and over.
