Viewing Notes

This is a pretty dumb movie with characters doing things that make no sense whatsoever. At the same time, you can’t stop watching.

It almost seems like that whole reason for making this film was to see how many bullet holes they could put in a house, a police car, and a bus.

It’s a road movie, which I’m a sucker for, and the Arizona backdrop is beautiful.
