Trucker - DVD Review

**

Starring Michelle Monaghan, Nathan Fillion, Benjamin Bratt, Jimmy Bennett, and Joey Lauren Adams.
Directed by James Mottern.

One of those down-and-out slice-of-life movies, this one focussed on a female truck driver (Mission Impossible 3's Michelle Monaghan) who suddenly has her 11-year-old son back in her life after she abandoned him and his father ten years ago. She takes him on the road, and while the kid's bratty at first (Jimmy Bennett is done no script favors), they eventually get a mutual understanding. The director frames it like he's dealing with honest people and situations, but the thin plot is predictable and convenient. Nathan Fillion shows up as an aw-shucks friend of hers.

This movie revolves around a single character that is why it doesn't able to attract the attention. I didn't find this movie worthy.
