MOVIE FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE NEVER HAD A THOUGHT
The soundtrack and colour grading are awful. It’s reminding me of daytime tv. It’s really ruining this experience for me. Someone else should make a movie about The Camino without a strictly copyright-free iMovie-esque backtrack. I think it’s a fruitful subject for a film.

Okay, I just finished the movie, and some of you have clearly never seen a good movie. This shit was fucking terrible. Religion where? Nothing but a very cliché montage of four boring people walking in close proximity to each other. Like what the fuck? Oh wow, they helped Martin Sheen a couple of times? They each shed one layer of their onionous skin and people are calling it “opened up” but also… who fucking cares? Nothing made me give a hoot about any of the characters. I think the LEGO movies had more potency in terms of subject matter and depth. Not a single profound thought in this entire film. This is literally pollution. I feel bad for wasting fossil fuels to put this on my screen.
