Purely Joyful Movie!
Admirable film.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Any time you get Seward homeboy Josh Thomas and National Geographic's J.J. Kelley together on a little trip you know you need to buckle up for a laugh-outloud adventure film.The dynamic duo certainly know how to tickle the Alaskan funny bone on their third feature, Go Ganges! The official word: Set in a stunning background of colorful landscapes, the film captures the danger, joy and significance of the mighty Ganges River. J.J. Kelley and Josh Thomas, creators of the award winning "Paddle to Seattle", decide to travel the 1500 mile length of the Ganges from its source to the sea.They employ several different means of transport (including rickshaw and a scooter) along the way. The filmmakers provide colorful testimony to the stress the river endures, and convey both the beauty and horror of this sacred river.What they don't tell you: it is difficult to determine what is more shocking - what they find on the river banks or in the bathrooms. A must-see film for anyone needing a little light show in the darkest month of the year.
