Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

climbyourarms Daryl fans everywhere, be prepared to hate me. We can officially say, Norman Reedus has lost his identity and has personified Daryl Dixon. DD has taken over, they are now inseparable. I will give this film credit for its artistic quality and beautiful setting, but the plot was boring and characters were way too cliché and predictable. First and most importantly, Daryl... I mean Diego, is a scruffy d-bag loner who lives in the high desert, never seems to shower and uses a gun, only he's not a good shot. He might have just walked off the TWD set, hopped on a plane and shot this movie, he even kept his greasy emo hair and used the same wardrobe. His character is DD the whole way. I was surprised that his brother in this movie wasn't named Mel, or something close. The plot "gave away the farm" too soon. Romi found out that her husband wasn't dead 1/3 of the way into the film, right when I was beginning to really feel the terror and bleakness of life on the run. Daryl/Diego could have still swooped in and they could have had their little fling all while hiding out, would have done wonders for the plot and would have affected little else. Afterward, I lost all sympathy for her, nor did I think her character empowered women to be free, rather the opposite. She was just bumbling around trying to find a bad boy to nail her. Mission accomplished.The medicine woman... a sweet old native American lady that names Romi "Sky" and tells her that she is going to produce baby Dixon, despite losing several babies in the past. She was so stereotypical, it almost seemed like a slap in the face to Native Americans everywhere. At least they didn't make her a drunk. The only compelling, unique acting was that of Lena Dunham. And I can't believe I'm saying it, because I can't stand her. She played the role of trailer trash so well, you would think they pulled some lady out of lot 7 in the same park and told her to play this role, it was that good. Anyway, whatever. I had to leave a review because this movie was so ridiculous, when The BIG ending happened, (I won't spoil it, even though I know you won't care) I was laughing, not crying like intended.Either way, Daryl fans, enjoy some more Daryl, I mean Diego!

MartinHafer "Sky" is a very unique movie and I can't recall ever having seen anything like this...which is a major plus.The film begins with a couple from France vacationing in the town of 29 Palms, which is pretty much in the middle of nowhere in the California desert. The husband is an obvious jerk and when he and the wife are in a bar, he drinks way too much and begins saying horrible things about his wife. Later, after they go back to their room, he tries to rape her and she beats him with a lamp to stop him. She thinks he's dead and quickly disappears on a road trip.Later, when she learns he's NOT dead, she inexplicably does not return home but aimlessly drifts through much of the rest of the film. You see her in seedy hotels, hanging out in old Las Vegas and eventually taking up with a guy who goes from being a one night stand to a boyfriend. It's obvious that Romy (Diane Kruger) is lost and has decided to just take a walk on the wild side. Seeing her hanging out in honkeytonk bars and in trailers is all a bit surreal considering that she's a French-German lady. As I watched this French production, I just kept saying to myself "I hope folks in Europe don't think this is like most of America!". The film presents a very seedy and low view of the country, that's for sure! Dank hotels, ugly and violent people, rats running about...it's certainly not what you usually see in films! This is NOT a complaint...just hoping folks don't assume this is typical Americana.Overall, this is a very good film but it's not for everyone. Many quiet moments and a sense of alienation make it something not for all tastes. But, if you're looking for something truly unique, you could certainly do a lot worse!

ThomasJeff There are just constant errors throughout the movie even though it tries to be realistic. The police are incompetent. The detective is even more incompetent and naive. The main character is an incompetent "spiritual french hippie" who constantly ACTS on FEEEEEEEELINGS over logic. Other errors include the nonsense and falsehood known as "depleted uranium" making someone sick. This is simply not true. There is no such sickness. There is no "radiation" that people get from "depleted uranium". It would be like getting radiation from tungsten or other heavy elements that aren't lead. People constantly shoot lead bullets and yet they don't get poisoned or irradiated. There is no SUCH THING. It's a hippie myth.The movie is basically about a sexually repressed woman who becomes a stupid slut and a hobo and leeches off of others. A few of the worst behaviors a woman can do in life. Living life through unplanned emotions/feelings/thrills. Making child-like decisions. Hurting other people along the way...She's not an adult. She's a child who cares about nothing but her own selfish feelings. There are also constant filming of Western/Mid-western American culture and portraying it as inbred, violent, and backwards, which yes there could be such characters but I don't know why the movie director or script writer decides to focus so closely on this.Characters in the movie keep doing illegal things or things that can get them fired and trying to make it seem "Oh it's OKAY and NORMAL."Then she finds spirituality and native Americans and other nonsense. The Native Americans are portrayed in their typical clichés as super-connected with spirits.This movie was written by children who have only had a few bad experiences with love.

David Ferguson Greetings again from the darkness. {Minor Spoiler} Remember that time you bashed your lover in the head with a lamp, left them bleeding on the floor, and then drove around for 3 days before turning yourself in to the police, confessing to what you assumed was a murder? And then remember how emotionally free you felt when it was discovered that not only was he/she alive, but they didn't even blame you for the head injuries? Well that's exactly what Diane Kruger's character, Romy, goes through during the first part of the film.Romy and her husband Richard (Gilles Lellouche) have traveled to the southwestern United States from their home in Paris. It's pretty clear that their hope is that this vacation will reignite the passion they once had and break them out of their marital slump. A few too many drinks at the bar leads to some unwanted amorous advances, and in the heat of the moment, Romy starts whacking Richard in the head with the lamp.Once she realizes that he survived and she's not going to spend her life in prison for murder, she also decides that she's not going to spend the rest of her life in a dead end marriage – a different kind of prison. Instead, she sets off on a journey of self-discovery. She even mentions how free she is, and can choose her own path.Her self-discover phase takes her to Las Vegas – courtesy of a truck driver played by Lou Diamond Phillips. Within a short period of time, she has befriended a lady (Laurene Landon) who wears a bunny suit in order to pose for pics with tourists. Romy borrows the bunny suit and meets a mysterious cowboy (Norman Reedus) named Diego. It's the relationship between Romy and Diego that dominates the final 2/3 of the film, and though they both create interesting characters, it's a bit of a letdown after the story's set up with the French husband.Lena Dunham has an odd turn as Diego's sister-in-law, and there is a dose of spirituality from Native Americans, but mostly this is Diane Kruger's movie. She seems to be enjoying the wide range of emotions while showing off her talents, and she keeps us interested enough to keep watching … even when the pace slows to a crawl.
