Two bored boys wandering through the vast Colorado fields stumble upon an abandoned police cruiser and, on a reckless dare, decide to take it for a joyride. What begins as a thrilling game of make-believe quickly spirals into a waking nightmare when the car’s owner, a ruthless and corrupt county sheriff played with chilling intensity by Kevin Bacon, returns to find his vehicle missing. As the boys, portrayed by James Freedson-Jackson and Hays Wellford, naively navigate the backroads, they remain oblivious to the dark secrets hidden within the car’s trunk and the desperate, violent man now hunting them. Directed by Jon Watts, this taut and suspenseful thriller masterfully builds tension from a simple premise, painting a sun-bleached portrait of innocence colliding with pure corruption. With a supporting cast including Shea Whigham and Camryn Manheim, the film traps its young protagonists in a deadly cat-and-mouse game where every turn of the wheel brings them closer to a danger they cannot possibly comprehend.
