An Exercise In Nonsense
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Seeking a hiding spot, somewhere to get away from their own disappointments and miseries in life three men, or rather middle aged guys decide to head on out to become one with nature. They go out into the wilderness to get back in touch with themselves and forget about their ridiculous lives at home. Little did they know that leaving this "reality" would bring them to a whole brand new one where they would have to learn whats really going down with this whole "planting" business they have gotten themselves into. Overall a entertaining movie. A little drawn out and in the middle, but a good narrative feature. Solid character development accompanied by loads of comic relief.
