2/5

"Turtle Hill" is inconclusive from start to finish, and while that appears purposeful, it's also pretty dull.

A spirit of free play defines the proceedings, as the script, penned by the two leads, allows characters to reveal themselves through believably precise bits of booze- and weed-fueled conversation.

3.5/4.0

A special film that exudes an honesty, authenticity and transparency that is rare even among the more transparent indie fare.

The dreariest party ever filmed. Don't bother to RSVP.

This was so much better than I thought based on the rating. It was a great movie and story. The writing and acting were really top notch.
