There’s nothing earth-shattering here, but the acting’s credible and the wrap-up unexpected.
A joy from start to finish. Bissonnette has crafted a unique, funny indie.
This smartly written comedy.
The film is long on cryptic exchanges, short on revelation, and shorter still on comic spark.
Genuinely warm, it kicks along nicely to a mostly 90s alt-rock soundtrack.
A deftly constructed tale.
Meandering road trip is worth the journey.
Passenger Side works through its angsty family-drama-oriented premise with a sarky script, a healthy sense of self-awareness and an amusingly deadpan performance from Adam Scott.
The journey is spiced up by the sting of their smart aleck banter and a succession of oddball encounters but the film still demands a good deal of patience.
