Detour – Official Trailer 1 – Tye Sheridan

detour Detour centres around law student and all round good guy, Harper (Tye Sheridan Joe), who suspects that his scheming step-father, Vincent, is responsible for the car crash that sent his mother into a coma.

Drowning his sorrows one evening in a seedy L.A whiskey bar, Harper is interrupted by a tough looking redneck called Johnny Ray (Emory Cohen) who offers to ‘take care’ of his step-dad for the cool sum of $20,000. Angry, intent on revenge and fuelled by alcohol, Harper agrees to the deal and spends the rest of his evening downing shots with him. The next morning, Harper awakes to the mother of all hangovers with hazy memory of the previous night’s events. After what follows, our lead character quickly realises that there is no easy way out.

Written and directed by Christopher Smith, and also starring Stephen Moyer, Bel Powley and John Lynch, this looks a reasonable drama but possibly not the first choice to see at the cinema.

Detour is released in the US on January 20th 2017, but as of yet, there’s no UK date.
