I just spent 2 hours lost in Lost Junction... and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Excellent film. Best part was the very real chemistry between the two main characters. It's not so much an edge of your seat type of thriller, but more of a quirky southern mystery with charm, romance, and subtle humor. I'm not claiming that this is a life-altering movie or even a 10, but at times it's so bursting with honesty and emotion that you can definitely get lost in the moment. (Sure you have to suspend disbelief, but isn't that why we watch movies). Different is good. I had not heard of this film before finding it at the video store, which amazes/annoys me because it's a lot better than the majority of junk out nowadays. Take a chance and visit Lost Junction.
To me, this film shows how great acting talent can save an otherwise hum-drum plot and story. Not that the story, itself, was bad. It was just not anything enthralling. What I liked most was seeing Neve act as a Southern Belle. Billy Burke played well off of Neve's strong presence. And Jake Busey... well, he just stole that letter quarter of this movie. I'd watch this movie again, just because I think the trio did really well. Though, I have to admit: Even if Neve wasn't a very good actress, all she'd have to do is smile and I wouldn't even notice if she was terrible. However, I've asked many people -friends and strangers, alike- and we all seem to agree that she is VERY talented. So, for once, my bias is on the money.
She even helped assure that I wasn't totally disgusted with 'When Will I Be Loved'. That's a major feat!

... but an unpretentious often funny one.This is not the kind of movie you will watch twice but you can save it for a rainy day.Many lines are full of black humor ("When we get to New Orleans ,my husband will be there " ) and good scenes (the priest reading the Book of Ecclesiastes not to mention Neve Campbell and the pretty little houses of the graveyard).The cast is uniformly good with Jack Busey as some kind of disabled Starsky who steals every scene he is in.
Main objection: the poor ending and the mediocre black and white flashback.
Not much food for thought but,by and large,quite entertaining.

Well, let's see... this movie is a little weird. I think it must not be judged from a logical and factual point of view. Movies are art... they are good if they make you feel or think what they intended to. And this movie made me feel Good! The film is about a man trying to escape his past and a strange and mysterious young woman of a small town. He meets her when his car breaks down on the road and the woman offers him help. The movie includes a supposed murder that don't get clear until the end. As the film progresses, events that led the young women to be as she is, are discovered. Drama, mystery and romance, presented with innocence... as if you were telling a story. Nice.
Really, just what can you say about a movie that has a gal who's driving around with her husband's dead body in the trunk, a drifter who pushed his best friend off a cliff crippling him for life (the best friend is one of the characters too), a no-goodnik trying to make off with a batch of money he's got no right to, and a batch of yokel law enforcers? Well, I gave it a mediocre rating because I can't say it's really good...it sort of wanders all around the place in no hurry to get to where it's going. On the other hand, I can't say it's bad because there was never a place where I wanted to stop watching it.
So really, I think you should see it. Neve Campbell is good as Missy as is Billy Burke as Jimmy.
The bottom line is that I can't rate it high nor can I rate it low, but I can't say it's mediocre either. I really think you should see it.
And if anybody gives this review a helpful rating, I shall be shocked!
