My review
Pretty weak plot, somewhat underdeveloped and weird characters, and a lack of cohesive structure tying it all together.
Plot overview
Washed-up revolutionary Bob exists in a state of stoned paranoia, surviving off-grid with his spirited, self-reliant daughter, Willa. When his evil nemesis resurfaces after 16 years and she goes missing, the former radical scrambles to find her, father and daughter both battling the consequences of his past.
