    Sacramento is a deceptively simple road movie that digs deep into the fractured psyches of two men at a crossroads. Blending bittersweet comedy with psychological drama, the film captures the tension between arrested development and looming adulthood. Sharp dialogue, clever use of therapy-speak, and a reflective visual style elevate the familiar structure, even if the final act feels somewhat rushed. Michael Cera delivers one of his most layered performances, balancing vulnerability with restrained rage. While not flawless, Sacramento offers a poignant, honest look at friendship, failure, and the elusive desire for change.

    Being from Sacramento, I love how they picked some iconic spots to shoot to show the beauty there. I’m just sad I was stuck at work during shooting instead of being part of the fun. Loved the acting, writing and the comedy. A great film, adding it to one of my favorites.

    Classic Cera humor. The story was meh. Good watch. Wouldn't be on my rewatch list tho.

    The plot and character acting was sub-par. The views of Sacramento did not include things like the Tower Theater and the wall paintings including the on of John Wayne. It seems like an afterthought to try to get interest in a home made movie. The cinematography was shaky and out of focus at times. We went because of the local advertising.

    as we go from children to adults that eventually have our own children, sometimes we don't seem to have it "all together" like everyone else seems to. this movie shows us how we may not all grow at the same pace, but we all grow eventually. I liked it.

    Too many plot holes, too much angst.

    Holy smokes I thought the movie was 3 hours long!!!! The movie dragged on through boring writing and pornography quality acting. Kristen Stewart and Michael Sara do not have the emotional capacity to play these roles accurately and the other one’s voice sounded like nails on a chalkboard. Real Pain is what Sacramento wanted to be and 30 minutes in it failed.

    Like an LA Native’s idea of what Sacramento looks like. Has some funny script moments but the two leads are just unlikable characters and the plot completely nosedives in the third act becoming completely detached from reality. It’s impossible to believe these characters act the way they do except for that they’re in a movie. If you like Michael Cera’s shtick it certainly helps but he’s just playing the same character as always and Kristen Stewart just doesn’t care and it shows. A pretty tone deaf display of men in deep committed relationships yet suffering from crippling learned helplessness.

    I LOVE quirky movies but this one was only painfully awkward (which is fine and sometimes great) but I feel that it needs to be in between legit funny and/or sentimental moments. With 92% of it being painful to watch it just left us wishing we picked a different movie. If you still want to watch it DON'T watch the trailer it has ALL of the funny parts in it.
