CINEMA FOR THE PEOPLE

Alexander Ullom’s debut is a smart and existential thriller that’s exactly what you’d hope for from an indie debut.

Maybe if our “Idiots” had more fun on this road trip, it would have made the ending hit a little harder. But, Blair’s scattershot comedy is too all over the place for the audience to take anything significant away.

Hope is absolutely worth rolling the dice on, assuming you can deal with its caveats when the time comes.
