Fresh and Exciting
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
