**Conceptually**, this had a lot going for it. But the actual product is a fucking disaster. _Escape from Tomorrow_ fails in basically every way it possibly could.
_Final rating:★ - Of no value. Avoid at all costs._

I liked this.
I mean, it wasn't full of action and drama, but that really never mattered to me. I don't need technicolor or car chases or CGI out the wazoo to enjoy a film.
Really what you have here is a story about a depressed man on vacation that is dealing with a little midlife crisis and still trying to please his family before hitting them with the bad news.
You get into his head and his delusions and, like all indie films, it relies on a smart script because it, well, that is all it has going for it.
There are better movies out there, but Escape from Tomorrow is entertaining for what it is and the resources they had to make it with. You can't really judge it against films like Goodfellas that had all the support budget and star power to win over audiences.
The film takes dedication to watch and the pay off is there if you have the patience required for indie films.
