The only reason I watched the movie was because it stars Norman Reedus, and I love him on The Walking Dead and in The Boondock Saints movies. "Sky" moved a little too slow for me, and the parts that got me where when Diego (Reedus) tells Romy (Diane Kruger) that he's dying from radiation poisoning and when he tells her to tell their son he was always wanted by his father before Diego dies. If you enjoy slow moving Indy films, this one is for you.

As a massive Norman Reedus fan I was stoked to watch this film. Have to say that I really enjoyed the story line and it made me sympathize with the main characters. I thought it would be hard to split Daryl and Diego however Norman Reedus made the viewer believe Diego's story line. Of course at the end i did blubber like a baby. But all in all the film was enjoyable; however I don't think I will watch this again, it was too heart rendering at the end. I would recommend this to others.

"Sky" is a very unique movie and I can't recall ever having seen anything like this...which is a major plus.The film begins with a couple from France vacationing in the town of 29 Palms, which is pretty much in the middle of nowhere in the California desert. The husband is an obvious jerk and when he and the wife are in a bar, he drinks way too much and begins saying horrible things about his wife. Later, after they go back to their room, he tries to rape her and she beats him with a lamp to stop him. She thinks he's dead and quickly disappears on a road trip.Later, when she learns he's NOT dead, she inexplicably does not return home but aimlessly drifts through much of the rest of the film. You see her in seedy hotels, hanging out in old Las Vegas and eventually taking up with a guy who goes from being a one night stand to a boyfriend. It's obvious that Romy (Diane Kruger) is lost and has decided to just take a walk on the wild side. Seeing her hanging out in honkeytonk bars and in trailers is all a bit surreal considering that she's a French-German lady. As I watched this French production, I just kept saying to myself "I hope folks in Europe don't think this is like most of America!". The film presents a very seedy and low view of the country, that's for sure! Dank hotels, ugly and violent people, rats running about...it's certainly not what you usually see in films! This is NOT a complaint...just hoping folks don't assume this is typical Americana.Overall, this is a very good film but it's not for everyone. Many quiet moments and a sense of alienation make it something not for all tastes. But, if you're looking for something truly unique, you could certainly do a lot worse!

Not seeing any trailer or knowing much of the plot I wasn't sure want to expect. I see others are upset about inaccuracies in the film but overlooking those aspects I was intrigued. It was a bit slow going, but just the kind of movie I enjoy. I loved the film 'Dark Harbor' many years ago (the only film i had seen Reedus in before The Walking Dead) and was expecting quite the same from this film. I would have liked a female character with more ambition and self respect but in the end i think she proved herself. Just waiting to see where the story would take me kept me invested until the end. I hope to see many more reviews in the future to see what others think of this film.
