At the Movies Review: Last Ride

Glendyn Ivins first feature after winning the Palme dOr in Cannes in 2003 for his short film CRACKER BAG is LAST RIDE, an ominous sounding title for what is essentially the story of a father and son.

Kev, (HUGO WEAVING) and his son Chook, (TOM RUSSELL) are on the road under suspicious circumstances. When Kev shaves his beard and cuts his hair at a roadside stop and then dumps their car we get the message. Kev is on the run.

Kevs a complicated piece of work. After a lousy childhood and various stints in jail, his instinct for violence is well-programmed. Hes alternatively kind and then horrible to his son.
