Some movies are just better on script
This movies definitely one of them, I felt whatever the writer of the script was trying to convey what it was like for people seeking travel and exciting lives, living carefree and close to migratory like birds, and the same time with the human instinct for competition, to win, to achieve.
Bostick looses everything to achieve his goal, stu's character is not in the same dilemma hes old but he also returns to family because he realizes he has a loving family to return to.
Blacks character is much more younger, but also would not like to sacrifice his family for his passion.
All in all its about how far do you go for a goal,would you postpone the things like settling down and having a family, or would you continue to want to live a migratory life?
I liked the movie, but I dont know if its for everyone.That alaskan island was beautiful though.
