Two guys quit stodgy corporate jobs, scrounged up all the savings they could, collected credit cards, and stepped - or better yet - scooted forward to follow their biggest dream: to become filmmakers. Josh Caldwell rode a Segway from Seattle to Boston, while his buddy Hunter Weeks directed a film they both shot about the experience and about the moments leading up to this crazy twist on the Americ

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Part of this film's considerable charm is the apparent naivety with which Josh and Hunter embark upon this adventure. It seemingly never occurs to them that they will not achieve their goal. Even the stunning scenery plays second fiddle to this very human tale of giving it all up for a dream. The characters they meet along the way are fascinating, and offer some very interesting insight into rural life. My personal favourite, the group of bikers they run into, who offer their views on travelling at 10 miles an hour, and repair the segway when something breaks. Apparently you cannot truly know a thing until you break it and fix it yourself. The film is not in anyway preachy, and is an endearingly off-beat look at a journey, life in a very slow lane and how much can be achieved if you really put your heart into what you are doing. This is the very best kind of 'reality'… the real kind!

Self-centered over-privileged suburban white boys go on a self-centered journey through the US, oblivious to the reality of others around them. They fret over their credit score, shortly after meeting people everywhere (in the reservation, in East St. Louis, in Colorado) who clearly will never have the luxury of worrying about their score. And yet the irony is lost on these folks. What a waste of effort. If only someone had shown these guys how to make a difference in someone else's life...Self-centered over-privileged suburban white boys go on a self-centered journey through the US, oblivious to the reality of others around them.

I just saw this film and loved it ! This really makes you stop and evaluate your life and what we're all doing here. We all think we're supposed to work our lives away while all of the things we want to do sit on the back burner never to be accomplished.These guys are my hero's. What seems like a silly stunt on the surface, is really an insight into life and a detailed look at the America that no-one takes the time to explore anymore.They attempt what we all wish we had the guts to do. And succeed ! I recommend this film to anyone who feels that life is passing them by. It dares us all to 'Just do it', and I for one plan to get off my butt and chase my own dreams.Sincerely, ~Randawg.

If you've ever wanted more out of your life, but afraid to take a chance to make your dreams come true you need to watch this movie. Take four regular people with a passion to chase a dream combined with some of the most sincere and loving Americans and you have a documentary that tugs your heart in every direction. And if you've spent your entire life on the east coast like I have, you appreciate what real America is like as they traveled through the plains of the Midwest. You'll laugh, you'll get angry, and you may even cry as I did, sitting there wondering what it is I want to do with my life.I loved everything about this movie and can't wait to see what they do with their next movie, "10 Yards". Thumbs up to Hunter, Josh, Gannon, and Alon for encouraging me to want more out of life
