| User ReviewHector DUna pelicula onirica ,donde todo tiene un simbolismo. Es America pero no es America, hay dolares pero no son dolares. El niño evoluciona casi como adulto y sufre transformaciones a lo largo de su viaje, pierde la inocencia, se obsesiona, lucha y encuentra lo que busca. La meta de la película es encontrar los MOTORAMA stickers que obsequian en las gasolineras Quimera, Si junta la palabra MOTORAMA con sus distintas letras, entonces gana un millonario premio. De eso es lo que va la película y es un mágico road trip en un mustang rojo manejado por el niño protagonista de la película. Es sin duda, surrealismo puro y un viaje muy especial. |
| User ReviewSwazmo ZEs un filme surrealista y colorido desarrollado en un lenguaje irreal, desenfadado y un poco oscuro, por estar lleno de símbolos y piezas sueltas. Pero es conmovedor inspirador y muy extraño. |
| User ReviewBryan GAt first I did not know what to expect. Honestly I just remember seeing a trailer for it on some DVD or VHS and it sounded like it might be an interesting movie to watch because its about a 10 year old who goes on a roadtrip. The movie started out like a simple film where it shows the kid at home making something while you can hear the parents argue and say some horrible things. There were many many things in this movie that would be classified as weird and you might think this film was trying to be simple little kids movie at first glance but it is rated R and even the kid curses. While he is driving collecting cards so that he can spell the word motorama at different gas stations for paying 5 dollars he runs into some very weird characters and some even played by notable celebrities. Drew Barrymore literally has one scene when he is dreaming and she is on the front cover as if she is a main star. However the only real star at constant character is Jordan Christopher Michael. I would love to show it to some friends or something because I think they would just be as weirded out or might even like the film as me. Or I don't know the movie is so weird that i guess thats why I liked it and the random scenes include Flea helping the kid out for 1 dollar. The dollar however as well as the world he lives in do not exist. The adults are bizarre and include some guy who gets run over by a truck but survives. Two adults who capture the kid and slap him for stealing gas enough so he has to wear a patch. An old guy who after he has a brush with him the main character has gray hair with a beard. I mean it is something to watch to just see but for some reason or another not many people have heard of this and there was even a sequel which I will now get which surprisingly has a cameo by Kurt Russell and others. Overall, I feel that at the end of the picture I decided it was a sort of stream of consciousness type deal where many ideas were pured into each other to create different scenarios that the kid faced while looking for M O T O R A M A. |
| User ReviewBill LDeceptively good story with some interesting cameos. |
| User ReviewEsteban Runa excelente peli independiente, una critica adelantada, un road movie intenso, con un protagonista que realmente sufre al volante... y solo tiene 10 años. una joya del canal cinemax a las 3 AM. |
| User ReviewElise MOne of the weirdest and most enjoyable movies I have ever seen. A great indie before "indie" had a dress code and a hair style |
| User ReviewJosh PHerman Hesse's Siddhartha returned as a deranged underage road movie. Damn near perfect. |
| User ReviewElizabeth CAwesome. It's about a 10 year old who does some pretty adult things: drive a mustang, loose an eye, get a bunch of tats, theft, er... grow stubble? and it's all for these cards he's collecting. The plot's pretty surreal, and has a lot of pointless parts to it(random hitchiker's having no plot relevance whatsoever), but I loved it. But, uh, Drew's in this for, like, a minute. Ignore the cover. |

| User ReviewErik NOverlooked morality play...like a family film, except it's rated R. |
