Movie Reviews of Off the Map

Movie Review: Great Indy Film
Summary: 5 Stars

If you haven't seen this film, see it. It's a keeper. I will tell you now, however, it's a little slow to start and more than a little quirky. It may not appeal to younger people for these reasons. No car chases.. nor big explosions..or small ones for that matter. There is some bad language. Stick to it, as the movie begins to evolve when the tax man enters the plot. A wonderful film with great acting and actors.

Summary of Off the Map

In the middle of the desert landscape of northern new mexico an extraordinary family is on a journey of self-discovery. In a place that seems off the map their lives are transformed as they find success in their own subtle ways. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 04/24/2007 Starring: Joan Allen Valentina De Angelis Run time: 110 minutes Rating: Pg13
Off the Map avoids conventional drama (hardly any event leads to an outcome you could expect) but the lean, sharp dialogue and superb performances make this movie a rich, human comedy. A young girl named Bo, living in the New Mexico desert, rebels against her bohemian parents by reading Forbes magazine and applying for credit cards. Her father Charley (Sam Elliott, Tombstone) has sunk deep into a paralyzing depression; her resilient, industrious mother Arlene (Joan Allen, The Upside of Anger) alternates between gently supporting Charley and railing against his zombie-like state. Into this off-balance family comes a tax auditor (Jim True-Frost, Singles), who--after being stung by a bee and lapsing into a sudden fever--becomes an accidental catalyst for change. In her movie debut as Bo, Valentina de Angelis gives a wonderful performance, head and shoulders above most actors her age. Campbell Scott's direction, as with his first film Big Night, is warm but not sappy; he has a gift for letting a story wander without it ever getting lost. The New Mexico landscape glows in the sun and helps give Off the Map a quiet but mysterious vision of life. --Bret Fetzer
