What makes it different from others?

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

Self-centered over-privileged suburban white boys go on a self-centered journey through the US, oblivious to the reality of others around them. They fret over their credit score, shortly after meeting people everywhere (in the reservation, in East St. Louis, in Colorado) who clearly will never have the luxury of worrying about their score. And yet the irony is lost on these folks. What a waste of effort. If only someone had shown these guys how to make a difference in someone else's life...Self-centered over-privileged suburban white boys go on a self-centered journey through the US, oblivious to the reality of others around them.

Following their hearts...living their dreams...embracing their passions...listening to others...spending all their savings! It is hard to pick which of these phrases best describes their journey, but I can only imagine what they (Josh, Hunter, Gannon, Alon) have learned from other people on this journey. It will take them to worthy pinnacles of joy and enlightenment, just as the movie embodies this type of accomplishment.The humor, frankness, and joy in the movie has a feeling of being professional in their genuine childlikeness. This is a movie that embraces America, freedom, independence, and yet a reliance on each other that is empowering! A Must See beauty of a movie that grew from a hearty seed!

10 MPH is great fun and heart-warming. If you're a city dweller, you deserve a taste of what the rest of the US is like. The only thing better than actually seeing this film is that you can't help being happy for the filmmakers that they got to put their vision, talents, and sense of adventure to such good use. They embody this line from Howard Thurman, "Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." One thing that really made me want to see 10 MPH was this comment by Sam Chaffos, Documentaries Programing Director for the 2006 Vail Film Festival: " . . . the moving experience shown in your film transcends the screen and infects the audience in a way that I don't know can be properly expressed through words. Maybe it's just where I happen to be in my own life at the moment, but I doubt it. The deft editing and subtle power of the courage, friendship, humour, and adventure conveyed in 10 mph is unlike almost any documentary I've seen, and I thank you personally for exposing so much. It amounts to an unbelievably powerful piece of art."

Really great doc about searching for meaning in our lives... It looks at the questions that most of us face daily, "What do I want to do with my life, what will make me happy?"The main thread of the story allows you to follow these two filmmakers as they ponder their own life directions as well as pose that question to those they meet and interview. Nice use of humor and struggle to add dimension to the film and characters. Beautiful visuals of the landscapes and people as well as a momentum building pace allow the viewer to connect with the film. Fantastic use of independent music to build a relationship and convey emotion.It might just make you want to quit your job and find your passion.
