Synopsis: A celebrity, disillusioned and questioning meets a devious stranger in the desert.
The Good: Exceptional pacing and interesting character development. Oscar pulls off yet another incredible performance. He’s genuinely frightening at times. At others bat shit insane. It’s a good not great script but the production itself makes up for it.
The Bad: Bit of a jolt ending. But overall it’s satisfying.
Best Line: “No I don’t want a neck rub. I want to eat this Chinese food and a blow job.”
