Scenic Route Ratings & Reviews
ScreenCrush
Britt Hayes
Overall, Scenic Route is a thoughtful piece about friendship and adulthood, though it becomes repetitive in both action, theme, and the occasionally insufferable demeanor of its leads.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Just because moviegoers begin to know these characters intimately doesn't mean they like them, or care whether they perish in the harsh conditions.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Refreshingly intelligent and palpably suspenseful. Josh Duhamel and Dan Fogler give the best performance of their career.
The Robot's Voice
Luke Y. Thompson
Perhaps even more effectively than The World's End - but in a less escapist fashion - this is a parable of responsibilities and foibles filtered through genre (horror, in this case).
Shared Darkness
Brent Simon
Lined with a certain bruised grace... a spare, streamlined, desert-set psychological thriller that doubles as a study in masculine relationship drift.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
It's actually a well-made, well-acted low-budget thriller that is more resonant than expected.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
Kyle Killen's script is generally uninspired and fairly predictable ...
USA Today
Scott Bowles
It begins with energy, dulls in the middle stretches but redeems itself with a final destination that makes the trip feel worth it.
We Got This Covered
Simon Brookfield
Scenic Route is an unsettling and wonderfully obtuse picture that will provide a different experience for every viewer.
New York Daily News
Jordan Hoffman
Fogler impresses with some brooding edge, but neither he nor the location photography is enough to recommend you join him on this doomed trip.
Los Angeles Times
Inkoo Kang
Mitchell and Carter never extend beyond the archetypes of Unhappy Family Man and Bitter Failed Artist. Nor do Duhamel and Fogler's inconsistent performances breathe life into their flat characters.
AV Club
Scott MacDonald
Is there a worse cinematic punishment than a two-hander featuring dull, unsympathetic twits bickering for an hour and a half?
Village Voice
Rob Staeger
The howl of the desert wind and the unflagging hammer of the sun are the backdrop for every bad decision, lending them a plausibility they wouldn't have in comfort.
Hollywood.com
Aly Semigran
Scenic Route is a movie that crawls under your skin and stays there for a while, thanks largely in part to its haunting ending.
ComingSoon.net
Joshua Starnes
When Scenic Route works it really works, and it's definitely a trip worth taking.
Film Threat
Noah Lee
It's beautifully shot, has awesome performances from its two leads but just ultimately is marred by its inconsistent storytelling and brutally awful ending.
Film School Rejects
Kevin Kelly
This script, by Kyle Killen, and direction from brothers Kevin and Michael Goetz have resulted in a very powerful film that you should see with your best friend. Then take a road trip together. You both might need it.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
The movie becomes a survival tale and is more successful in its grueling, slightly crazed second half.
The Dissolve
Mike D'Angelo
As the guys' circumstances become more dire ... Scenic Route gets increasingly dopey and contrived. And the movie's cheesily ambiguous ending ... doesn't help.
