Scenic Route (2013)



Never heard of it? Right, here's the gist, two life long friends are  on a road trip when they break down in the wilderness of the US desert, stranded jovial conversation soon turns to criticisms of each others life decisions.
 
Two actors, one exterior scene, that's it for 90 minutes, but it's a 90 minutes that unwinds and twists it way with good performances from the two leads Josh Duhamel ('Vegas', 'Transformers') and Dan Fogler (Zach Galifianakis look a like but with talent), a good solid script, a movie that is a hybrid mix of '127 Hours' and 'Alive' with a twist ending that is a massive punch in the guts.
 
Highly, highly recommended.
