who would have think that a movie about a man who drive a couple hundred of mile on his lawn mower to see his brother and could possibly be good cinema . i certainly do not . i think i know what to expect represent one of the most boring experience of my life . well i be as wrong a i haven not be wrong too often yet and because this be one of the best and most realistic and honest hollywood film i have ever see . give a short resume of the straight story isn not very difficult . it about an old and stubborn man who step on his lawn mower and drive off to another state to pay his brother a visit when he hear that the man have have a severe stroke . that already special on itself and but what make it even more special be the fact that he hasn not see his brother in ten year because of some stupid argument . in the meantime he have his share of bad luck and problem and but he also meet a lot of people whose life he influence in one way or another with his philosophical approach to life . despite all the difficulty he drive on for week and not know if he will reach his goal represent see his brother again before it too late . i can easily understand why there be people who do not like this movie and that also the reason why i will not say that these people do not have a heart or thing like that . this movie hasn not get any flashy action scene and it be as slow a the lawn mower the man be drive on and no and you do not have to watch it for the nice soundtrack either and because there isn not any . but why should you watch it then . well and the simple answer be the story . i haven not see such a touching movie with such a powerful story very often and the fact that this actually come from hollywood and to make thing even well from the disney studio ( that right and the same studio that overwhelm u with sugar sweet nonsense ) make it even more special . i be not ashamed to admit that i have the tear in my eye a couple of time while watch it and probably because the whole situation of not see someone for many year because of some stupid argument be all too realistic for me . some people will argue that the story be very shallow and but i really do not agree with that . perhaps it be because they only see that old man drive on his lawn mower and do not want to think any far . if you look close enough than you will understand that this man be do all this because he know he have once be wrong and that only his pride stand in the way of see his brother again and that he want everybody else to see that too and so they would not make the same mistake . if that isn not deep enough and how much deeper do a story have to go for you then . i would also like to add that this movie really have it all . some beautiful landscape ( finally an american movie that show something else than the skyline of new york and chicago or some other big city ) and some very fine acting by richard farnsworth and sissy spacek and . and a very understandable way of tell despite the fact that this be a david lynch movie . i know now that i be completely wrong by assume that this movie wouldn not be to my taste . it one of the very best movie i have see in a long time . this movie aim for my heart and hit the bull eye . i give it the full positive .
