Highway

Year: 2002

Why'd I Watch It?: Part of Gyllenhaal Fest.

What's It About?: Jared Leto being a womanizer who sticks it to the wrong lady and has to go on the run from her husband taking his bffl, a drug dealing Jake Gyllenhaal, with him.

What'd I Think?: Dr. Cox is a totally drugged out hippie. This movie did a good job emulating the mid-90s stylistically. The script was wanting. I could do without the constant home video style flashbacks to Leto and Gyllenhaal's youth. It felt like a crutch, like they couldn't establish this friendship well enough in the very beginning so they had to stick this in everywhere. Dear God, Jared Leto's hair.
