It's very atypical kind of movie. At first, the story looks as something we've seen many times already - a boy is looking for his father. But the story is quite interesting when you go through it along with the boy. And the ending is great.
"Everyone has their own way of living, but no one really knows anything for sure. And everyone's struggling
one way or another."
This movie is a rather middling entry into the "person goes on a road trip trying to find someone" genre. The ending to the film should have been somewhat obvious when you see what the story emphasized, and what it didn't. I think the problem with the story is that the journey is told through the eyes of a child. A child would naturally want his parent, and there isn't really anything beyond that. In a (far superior) movie like Broken Flowers, there is so much more to get into (a lifetime of guilt for bad behavior, the pain that person caused others, etc). Instead, it was really just a road trip movie.
