Watch Highway For Free
Highway
Jack is caught with the wife of his employer, a Vegas thug. The thug sends goons after Jack, who convinces his best friend, Pilot, to flee with him. Pilot insists that they head for Seattle, but doesn't tell Jack why. The goons learn from Pilot's drug source where the youths are headed, and they follow, hell bent on breaking Jack's feet. On the road, Jack and Pilot give a ride to Cassie, a distressed young woman. She and Jack hit it off. They pick up an aging stoner headed to Seattle for Kurt Cobain's memorial, and they help a circus sideshow family. Why is Pilot so set on Seattle, will the goons catch Jack, and is there any way the friends' competing needs can be resolved?

How sad is this?
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

i don't know what everyone's complaining about, a funny movie with pretty people...works for me. but i think i know a bit...lots of people who watched this have seen two movies they think are great;it won't give you spiritual awakenings like donnie darko, it's not as dramatic as requeim for a dream.thankfully. somebody's even complaining about 'happy ending'...pfft.i give it a seven just to promote a rare modern movie that doesn't make me puke with music video cuts and dramatic substance for once.plus i can't recollect seeing a movie that would (even slightly) use the times of grunge as it's background.
A true movie about true friendship. Many may seem to think that a movie about two male best friends has something "gay" to it, but the truth is that there is nothing homosexual about a true brotherly love and care between two guys. People should break this prejudice. It is entertaining and fun to watch. It is based on a story about two friends (Leto & Gyllenhaal) that go on a road trip to Seattle for two different reasons. Leto's character is running away from their Nevada's home town because of troubles with his employer's wive, and Gyllenhaal's character wants to visit his high school graduation love interest that is now living in Seattle. I strongly recommend you this movie. You won't regret it.
It starts out with Pilot (Jake Gyllenhaal) pretending to be a valet to steal a car to give his pseudo-girlfriend Lucy (Arden Myrin) a ride to work. Next we see Jake (Jared Leto) playing out a sex fantasy with a Vegas Thug's wife. Both characters look exactly the same as children and as adults, which I find odd. I guess it is to inform the watchers that they are in fact the same people. As Pilot and Jake leave are leaving town after finding out that they are being followed by the thug's' goons, they meet up with a variety of people and situations. Jeremy Piven shines as Pilots drug dealer and provides a much needed comic relief. The movie moves very quickly and there is never a dull moment. As most movies that deal with road trips, the boys learn some valuable lessons about themselves and life in general. Most importantly that `You cannot run away from weakness; you must some time fight it out or perish; and if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?' Robert Louis Stevenson; but at the same time, life is also in the journey. Taking it as it comes and doing the best we can. As long as we are true to ourselves everything else will fall into place. In this crazy world that's the only thing that we can depend on things not working out the way we expect.
