Although I had been so eager to watch this movie, it was so tedious that I checked the time frequently to reach sooner to the end of the movie. It contains nither interesting story nor any emotional or action or even deep scene. Sorry to mention but time wasting.

So Boring
Two guys, a truck, Belgium to Italy
Two guys (one gay one straight, best friends from ages ago) reunite, a truck, Belgium to Italy, ferry ride, home - that about sums it up.
Soundtrack is amazing, cinematography is beautiful. There is male and female frontal nudity but not by the leads.
It takes us down a memory lane and shows how we can never hope to recreate our childhood, no matter what ... but are some friendships worth saving after all?
A real gem
This is a heartfelt movie about complex relationships and friendship/family dynamics, with the added bonus of a gay subplot that is tastefully interwoven.
In general, the problem in most movies that feature gay characters and/or scenes is usually (aside from unrealistic and horrible acting) that the scenes are so full of stereotypes and extremes they become gratuitous and unrelatable. But not in this movie, where the entire storyline is well styled and pieced together with heartfelt emotions by the actors, as "real" people.
The moments of conflict are handled well and totally relatable (I.e., the feeling of loss, and realization that some things aren't possible, is painful and relatable to anyone.)
Yes there were moments that definitely made my eyes tear up, but I would say that overall, it's NOT intended to be a sad movie. It's a storyline that does pull at the heart strings, but not in a way that is manipulative and overly-sad.
Bottom line is that this is a wonderful and well made movie.
