Open Road

Don’t get me wrong: I’m a Justin Timberlake fan. I also don’t think he’s that bad an actor. But pair an average actor with a heavyweight like Jeff Bridges, who plays JT’s dad in this film, and you’re bound to look worse than you really are.

The problem is that estranged father and son go on a torturous roadtrip – that’s the gist of the story – so almost 90% of the scenes involve JT and Jeff, which just makes the popstar look amateurish. Apart from that, the pace is slow, so you might find yourself struggling to stay interested. But then again, I might have nodded off and missed the good parts… Rating: 2 outta 5.
