1. Quality

2. Summary

   Good 3.0

   “Conquistadores of the useless” – that is one quote from the movie that captures a tongue in cheek perspective on what this movie is all about. In 180, you follow the adventures of Jeff Johnson, as he tries to re-trace a journey of a group of men from California to Patagonia and Corcovado Chile. The movie is intriguing as you get swept up in the hippie-esque journey to Easter Island and then Chile. Great story, great scenery, and a great escape for a few hours. A warning for Republicans: be prepared for the conversationalist messages throughout the film.

4. Acting

   Great 4.0

   It’s neat to know that guys like this are around. Surfer/Climber/Sailor dudes just up for any adventure. At one with the world and nature. Many of us can’t identify with that, but watching it is very cool.

10. Film

    Good 3.0

    A well done movie, fantastic filming of some incredible places. As for my nit-picks: many reviewers loved the soundtrack – but I found it overbearing. It also went on a bit too long after what I thought was the climax, and instead spent too much time pushing the conservationist agenda – a worthy cause, but it is a bit of a turn off when it is pushed so much.
