Rating: 2/5 -- Too often veers from the road by misguided design. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- The rambling plot may resemble a lyric from a mawkish country song but the film-makers bring an engaging mix of tenderness and grit to the downbeat material. Full Review

Rating: 1.5/4 -- A pedestrian, undeveloped indie clunker, its failure as a complete, satisfying story especially disappointing since the sibling relationship at its center could have been special with a better script. Full Review

The film is more downbeat than tense, interweaves animation sequences, and perhaps worked better in the original novel. Full Review

Watching The Motel Life, I felt that I was in the hands of someone capable of making a great film. Full Review

Sensitive lensing and acting render an unusual story of brotherly love touching in a promising first film. Full Review

Rating: 7.6/10 -- The Motel Life feels a little too down-in-the-dumps for its own good at times, but sparks of energy supplied by Hirsch and Dorff illuminate an otherwise dreary film. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Based on the popular novel by Willy Vlautin, THE MOTEL LIFE is a searing and profound examination of brotherhood set in the timeless Sierra Nevadan frontier. Frank (Emile Hirsch) and Jerry Lee Flannigan (Stephen Dorff) work odd jobs, drink hard, and drift from motel to motel. Their only escape is through Frank s fantastic stories and Jerry Lee s rich illustrations. Everything changes when Jerry Lee is involved in a hit-and-run accident, which forces the brothers across the state to the home of Frank s old flame, Annie (Dakota Fanning).
