Jenai seemed like a sad and depressed person even before the event, maybe it's her acting, but she seemed like she was just going through the motions on their vacation. Even if solar breaks down he could just put a mini turbine into one of the rivers and boom, electricity. Riley seemed like a bright enough fella to learn how to equip a house with solar panels. There's probably enough bottled water on Iceland to last them a lifetime and even if they would somehow run out, there are rivers, glaciers, wells etc.Īt first I was worried about their food prospects since the movie didn't show any animals until the later half but when I saw that animals still exist, like, what the hell are you worried about, you have an unlimited meat supply.Įven if the geothermal plants break down, there's still solar. I also couldn't understand why the girl was so worried about conserving food and water. Literally almost unlimited lifestyle options and they decide to live like a boring mid-twenties couple. Like, we are alone in the world so let's just continue living like before. It was probably because of the limited budget but I just cannot believe anyone would act like they did in that scenario. They only barely touch on religion in the movie, their going to the church and Jenai talking about her fathers church, and a brief bit about the rapture. This all seems to be to much of a stretch though. ![]() He goes out into the universe (sea) for too long and his absence his word or religion (wife) and man kind (children) have changed so much that earth (his home) is no longer his. Where God is the old man too long at sea, his wife being religion, and his children are man. This could be a metaphor for god, religion, and man. When he came home his wife and children were changed and no longer his. Later in the night he tells Jenai that he was a fisherman that spent too much time on the sea. He says something along that line to Riley, who dismisses it as depressing. His thoughts when they first meet speak to a philosophy that we are all alone together. They are on vacation in Iceland, so more than likely the language he was speaking at first was Icelandic. ![]() Better yet, buy two first-class tickets to Iceland like they did.I don't believe it was supposed to be litteraly god, but it could have been a metaphor for god. See the world through Mitch's and Collin's eyes and you'll feel a bit better about the journey. This is an enjoyable film, which looks lightly at some of the issues associated with growing older that many baby boomers just like Mitch and Collin face today. It's the incredible geography of Iceland, which Mitch and Collin explore throughout the movie. In this movie, there's a third main character that never speaks. It seems like every road trip movie is written this way. It starts sort of rocky, gets into a swing, there's a trumped up moment that drives the characters apart, then there's resolution. This is a road trip movie that follows a set pattern. It's giving nothing away to tell you that the movie spends five minutes in Kentucky and the rest of the time in Iceland. The two were married to a pair of sisters, which makes them ex-brothers-in-law but more important, old friends. I took the title of this review from the 1976 Jethro Tull album, which is an appropriate time period for this movie because Mitch and Collin, the two main characters in this movie, appear to be either pushing 70 or in their 70s like many boomers.
