Take Me Home (PG-13) 6.5

Take Me Home (2011): Soon after Thom starts operating as an illegal taxi driver in New York City, Claire hires him to drive her to California after her estranged father suffers a heart attack. (6.5)

Director: Sam Jaeger
Writer: Sam Jaeger
Stars: Sam Jaeger, Amber Jaeger and Victor Garber

Two strangers on a road trip across America!  Okay, so the circumstances of their meeting and the mode of transportation are a bit weird. The humor is quirky and the acting is fine; it grows on you. Cinematography is quite nice, specially the scenes of the western states. Simple and hopeful story, but the Real Life <tm> isn't like that. The personal stories of the two characters didn't quite pull the correct emotional strings, at least, for me. My Rating: 6.5
