The first must-see film of the year.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The film is not as bad as I was led to believe. There is promise of what could have been. "Interstate" pays homage to one of the earlier films in the film noir genre, "Detour" and is kind of a road-noir.There is, however a bright light and a revelation to this film. The emergence of a young face well-suited to film noir. A very gifted actress by the name of Alexandra Ackerman, who should have a long and prosperous career in film. As the female lead, Veronica she is alluring and seductive. You can't take your eyes off her. She is every guy's vision of a goddess. There is something captivating about her. While this may not be a great film, the mere presence of this actress makes it worth watching. I look forward to seeing other films with her in the lead. For this reason alone, I recommend the film.

A Montreal DJ, following his girlfriend to Los Angeles, falls into a deadly relationship with a couple of female hitchhikers.Sounds like it could be fun, right?Well firstly the title music is horrible. It makes you want to run just to get a way from it. I had to FF thru the titles.Next, the acting is horrendous. And the film making is so shoddy that in one of the initial scenes (in the car) the girl has flies on her and no one re-shot the scene!!!OMG!Of course the car breaks down. Oy Vey. The one positive thing I can say is that the color is really nice. It pops. Other than that, the movie is horrible.It seems that it was marketed as a "film noir" but whoever came up with that bright idea doesn't know the first thing about film noir. DOA is film noir, Detour is film noir. This is garbage. The truth is, the writer stole a scene right out of Detour! Amazing.

Watched this not knowing what to expect, mainly because it had Reggie Bannister in it (for a whole 60 seconds or so.) Made for a simple movie to have on in the background while also doing other things. It wasn't superb acting, a complicated plot or anything. Just some unfortunate stuff that happens to some schmuck.To be honest, while it's not a complicated plot, it does make you somewhat feel for Edgar's character. He just wants to do right by his girlfriend and gets caught up in a bad situation. Not 100% sure how I felt about his acting. It wasn't too bad, but at the same time it seemed a bit plastic.The two lead females however deliver a pretty decent performance.The plot synopsis is a bit misleading, but has the gist of the film in it. Was hoping for a bit more suspense or something, but like I said, it's sorta just a bunch of stuff that happens to Edgar.

This movie is horrible. Let's examine why... Is it the cinematography? Nope. It's fine and has some good moments. Is it the sound? Nah, it's forgettable but must have done its job. Is it the acting? Well. No. It's actually pretty good. Then what is it? It's the story! The plot line for the movie reads well and you get the feeling this is a great gem of a movie. So there is clearly potential there. What is unfortunate is what happens once the movie starts unfolding. The main character turns out to be a gutless, ball-less and altogether sorry excuse for a man with a spine, not to mention he is stupid to the point where you feel like slapping some sense into him.I don't know about you, but if my driving partner turned up dead at a gas station, the first thing I would do is scream HELP! The next thing is call the police myself. What does the protagonist do here? He stashes the body in the desert. Gah. Even after the movie ends on a supposedly good note, he can still get busted for this. Stupid stupid stupid.Second, letting two, highly unattractive, girls push him around again and again is just inexcusable. It isn't because of sexual tension, so why is it? Sure, you can build a movie around it, but you'd need some kind of proper motivation. At first there IS no motivation. He should have kicked them out of the car from the start. Then once they start acting up, he should have kicked them out again. The occasions where he can kick them out are numerous, but instead he acts like a complete retard and just lets them walk all over him. Argh!This movie sucks for this reason. Stupid, gutless main character.It could have been great, if they had prepared a stronger motivation for the guy to let the girls walk all over him. Unfortunately, it was just a teeth grinding experience watching the guy getting walked all over and lapping it up like a good little dog.I don't usually condone violence towards women, but if this guy had had any spine at all, he would have indulged in a bit of "see my fist? Taste my fist!" OR, he could have used several opportunities to run some psychological warfare of his own. But, alas, stupidity and an empty ball-sack is all that predominates here.Please, stay far away from this movie, unless you like to have your intelligence insulted, and enjoy the feeling of wanting to beat some sense into the main character.
