The road less traveled
9 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This is the story of Sgt. Will Gardner, a PTSD, TBI vet. Will has flashbacks a lot and talks to his dead friend. In order to help himself, he reads and exercises, although we only see the former. He also helps himself by drinking heavily and stealing a bike from a Terminator to take a most boring ride across America and see his ex-wife and son. Will is very rough around edges. He is basically socially dysfunctional and unemployable...and fights too much.

Yes, folks like this need help but making a boring film on the topic really doesn't help. Now if they had Bryan Cranston starring in the film, we would have had a brief moment of comedy to break up all the drama. The soundtrack was the pitiful piano playing attempting to twang on our emotions because Lee Greenwood wouldn't do it without the green?

Now if they exposed Sean Hannity's dubious charity, or Trump attempting to kick veteran vendors off the sidewalk, that would be worth watching. All I ask is to entertained.

Guide: F-word, sex, no nudity.
