There are small cast / single setting movies that can shine through their use of clever plot twists or intriguing story development. This isn't one of these instances. You get to watch Matt Damon and Casey Affleck walking about an empty desert, no explanation given to what started this journey or why they were unprepared, only that this is a good idea they had of a sort.
Prolonged closeups accompanied by Arvo Part music were meant to establish an ethereal feeling to this long walk, but unfortunately falls short of saving this otherwise very empty film about 2 people in the act of walking. There's no grand meaning to be missed. It's a movie made with material barely sufficient for a music video.
