Mags and Julie Go on a Road Trip.

Poor production value doesn't bother me on an independent film, but the acting was across the board terrible. Doing everything (acting + writing + directing) isn't for everyone. I couldn't make it all the way through. Painfully bad; acting is at once over the top as well as stilted. I love independent films (especially when focused on women characters) having a larger audience, such as on Prime, but this lack of quality will keep the big streamers from giving artists a chance. The Incredible Jessica James is a good example of the right way to do it. You dont have to have big names, but you do have to have talent.

I was excited to see this, as it was filmed in Wisconsin, in several areas I'm familiar with. It starts out well, fun seeing the Third Ward and downtown Milwaukee. But then it goes down hill and drags quite a bit. Some heavy editing and more developed characters could have really helped. The end was fairly satisfying, but I was fine with missing long stretches, which my husband still watched. There were promising stretches but then it digressed into predictable and slow too often.

... But actors do not live up to the idea or script of the story. (That's a complex statement)

The script and plot of this movie are just wonderful. Unfortunately the casting is lacking in the ability to deliver the lines. Ryann Liebl (Mags) and Elisabeth Donaldson (Julie) are just a bit too cute to be believable. And Wes Tank (the boss) should reconsider his acting abilities.

The weekend adventure is fun but the movie just didn't make the mark in its' attempt to be a whimsical and life changing story for Mags & Julie.

This film has a great story behind the scenes. Female directed, written and produced. It's funny, touching and heartwarming. Reminded me of "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" appreciated it especially after the drama of 2020. Worth watching this Independent film!!!

This flick is truly a dud; open a dictionary, look up "dud", and there this movie will be.

The two supposed gal pals are not witty, not funny, not even likeable.

It appears that the gal pals were asked to do a lot of ad libbing - here's the setup, do something, roll the camera - and, generally, they let the camera roll way too long on any given scene setup. Consequently, the pace of this thing has the consistency of a slow mud slide.

There's a lot of borrowing from other things, like a bad boss/overburdened underling scenario recalling the Devil Wears Prada - altho once you recall and compare the actia; DWP/MerylStreep/Anne Hathaway prototype to what this crowd does w. The same setup, you'll just want to turn if off and put them out of their misery.

Poor Milwaukee. :-) lol.
