Jim, the cheapest Chinese American dude in LA, has recently been left by his fiancé, Katherine two weeks before their wedding on Valentine's Day. In order to ease his pain, he asks his long-time best friend and ex-con, Alex, to kill him. Alex reluctantly agrees to give Jim his wish, but he doesn't think its a good idea to do the job down in LA. So Jim and Alex begin their journey with a trip up to Jim's Aunt's cabin in the mountains, under the strict condition that all business is to be taken care of before Valentine's Day.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a delicate balance between dark comedy and drama, using its absurd premise to explore loneliness, friendship, and the search for meaning. It relies on the contrast between the two leads, turning their journey into a series of cathartic encounters.

What lingers after the credits is the quiet realization that sometimes the most profound truths are revealed through the darkest jokes. The journey, not the destination, becomes the real point. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Ron Oda

Brew strong tea, sink into the couch, and let the road take you to the mountains. Best watched with a small group open to dark humor.
