Member Rating:  
At the beginning of Interstate 60, Neal Oliver (James Mardsen) has more questions about his future than answers. Though he would rather pursue a career in art, Neal debates whether or not he should set his goals towards a law degree, as his father would greatly prefer. He has a girlfriend, but he wonders if he should search for the mysterious woman (Amy Smart) who visits his nightly dreams and inspires his artwork. By the time his 23rd birthday roles around, Neal is no closer to choosing his life's path. He feels empty and unsatisfied, despite lavish birthday gifts, and wishes only for clarity as he blows out the candles on his cake. Rather than instant answers, Neal is given the opportunity to take a journey on a highway that doesn't exist on any map; a highway where the past, present, and future converge. Alongside him is One Wish Grant (Gary Oldman), the immortal offspring of a leprechaun and Cheyenne Indian, who has the unique ability to grant wishes to those he believes deserve them. Thus begins Neal's surreal road trip through the uncharted territories of his own potential destiny. Interstate 60 features a stellar cast with supporting performances and cameos from Kurt Russell, Michael J. Fox, Liv Tyler, and Christopher Lloyd. Bob Gale, co-writer/producer of Used Cars, I Wanna Hold Your Hand, and, most notably, the Back to the Future trilogy, directs. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

This is a wonderful gem of a film, a sort of modern take on Gulliver's Travels (and a bit of The Twilight Zone thrown in) with some great characters, great cameo appearances and some excellent social satire. It's nice to Gary Oldman playing something other than a psycho, and the scenes with Chris Cooper are terrific. And it's unpredictable. Just when you think you know what's going to happen, something else does. See it!

Tottaly disagree with the other reviewers. I found it funny, sometimes laugh out loud so, and very enjoyable to watch. It was oddball to say the least, but not in an off-putting way. I had fun watching the main charecter on his journey of discovery and the wonderfully irreverant people he met on his journey, most espically Gary Oldman in, for a change, a light and comedic role. It may not be for everyone, but it deffinatly does not deserve the bad rap it's gotten here. Try it for yourself and see if you aren't pleasently surprised.

A fairly amusing coming of age story with some really funny scenes --some of them embodied with moral concepts. A very good way to indulge in some silly escapist fantasy
