Felicity Huffman's sympathetic performance as the transgendered Bree uplifts this tedious road trip drama that throws in every cliche imaginable; Fionnula Flannagan is in over-the-top mode. Final Grade: C+

Cutting yr dick off for Jesus H Christ



Transamerica—despite the buzz surrounding it—isn't so much a "transsexual movie" as it is something far less innovative: a road movie. It's simply more devoted to the road movie formula—that of two misfits squabbling in a jalopy at the onset of a cross-country trip, who come to love one another somewhere close to the destination—than to what it likes to think of itself as, which is a substantial story about a dude who wants to be a chick.

Transamerica

Transamerica is a highly overrated movie. This film is good for it's Good Direction and It's good acting, but suffers from lazy writing and slow pacing. Felicity Huffman is good and convincing as a woman(in real life), playing a man becoming a woman. Kevin Zegers is always good as the son she didn't know she had. The movie has many pointless scenes that leave questions to be answered, thus making the movie un-enjoyable and causes the bordem to start very early on. The acting alone, is the only reason that anyone should see this movie.
