Gerry

Visually spectacular it indeed is. Two friends (Matt Damon & Casey Affleck) who call each other Gerry get lost in the salt lakes and the wilderness of Utah. It something of a "land" equivalent of this movie. Fantastic photography that one can associate with Gus Van Sant - in that its like a 90 min photography exhibition. But the Matt Damon + Afflect combination (this time its bro Casey) strikes again with an expected self-indulgent script. Nevertheless, as the movie goes on, the desperation of the characters comes across well - while ones waiting for the credits to roll.
