Henk v @RT43845867 Jan 4 Some people are going to find this movie boring and pointless. Others, like me, see a beautiful portrait of time, friendship and the minutiae of life. See more Michelle C @RT34196344 Nov 27 The best thing about this movie was that the dialogue didn’t distract from the beauty of the Scottish Highlands! Slow, long scenes of 2 friends, Chris (Bart Harder) and Lluis, (Carles Pulido) walking the West Highland Trail. They get up at 4.30am one morning to see the sunrise but it’s cloudy, reflective of the anticlimax of the movie. I want one of their phones, they last for weeks with no charge. There are strange expressions of feelings when Lluis declares he had early stage testicular cancer and Chris has a job where his colleague Tom calls him with problems sending spreadsheets, not that he can do anything while on the track! The 79yo Chris meets who has never been happier is the most likeable character. Boring and not plausibly in sections when they go there seperate ways but somehow find each other on the path. Not recommended See more Victoria W @RT75071269 Nov 23 I loved this film. I'm still thinking about it hours later. It's profound and beautiful and unfolds at a slow pace, as a long walk should. It's a deep and moving mediation on how we spend our time and what nourishes us. See more Geoff R @RT50263052 Nov 22 Superb scenery and excellent acting. Not an action movie but a slow burn. Develops a subtle emotional tension between the two friends as they progress thru the challenging Scottish Highland topography and experience it’s very challenging weather. My companion’s immediate reaction after the credits rated this as the best movie seen for a very long time. See more Am E @RT78518562 Nov 16 This was disappointing, boring, pointless. It ~almost~ leaves you wondering some questions like why, how, what, and again why? What was all of those half baked storylines? But then it simply wasn’t interesting enough to provoke any further thought.
