Review of Blue Bus

Blue Bus (2010)
9/10
"Blue Bus" is a truly color-blind "on the road" film that is compelling from beginning to end.

I loved "Blue Bus" because it involves a black guy and a white guy traveling together for days and days, and it never matters at all that one guy is a black guy and one guy is a white guy. These friends are color-blind; consequently, the film is as well. Not since TV's "I Spy" has there been an interracial duo on the American screen with such a true balance of power. The combination of sensitive direction, compelling dialog, skillful acting and ingenious camera work makes this film insightful and delightful from start to finish. Despite the seemingly casual "on the road" feeling to it, the film has a constant sense of design and purpose - an effortless sense of suspense that engages the viewer throughout. I look forward to seeing it again as soon as possible.
