Review
unknown

Well, the movie captures the book - but tones things down a bit. The characters in the movie are obnoxious, toxic people - but not so much as in the book. They are criminal - but not so much as in the book. I wouldn't want to know any of these people with their pretensions of being intellectuals, when they are really just a drain on society. Useless people, just as in the book. Not very enjoyable to watch.

Traveling across the American southwest together, they strive to break from conformity and and search the unknown, and their decisions change the very course of their lives.
