Highway 61

HIGHWAY 61 (1991) - Oct. 21, 2010
Unpleasantly quirky and with a cheap, low-rent vibe permeating pretty much every aspect of the film, this was a fairly mediocre movie about a small town barber who winds up accompanying a free-spirited woman on a cross-country road trip.  One of the main problems is that the two leads are both mediocre actors, and neither have much charisma or chemistry together.  It also has that distinctively Canadian quirk to it, which really doesn't particularly work.  I didn't completely hate this film (I was basically entertained, I guess) but I didn't like it, either.  **
