Land Ho!
A pair of former brothers-in-law embark on a road trip through Iceland in an attempt to reclaim their youth through Reykjavik nightclubs, trendy spas, and rugged campsites. This bawdy adventure is a throwback to 1980s road trip comedies, as well as a candid exploration of aging, loneliness, and friendship.

"Land Ho!" is a high-spirited and life-affirming film about drinking life down to the last drop. "Don't get that Sunday afternoon attitude," Mitch admonishes Colin near the end of the trip. "It ain't over with yet."

Unassuming and amiable, this road-trip buddy comedy... belongs squarely in the sub-genre of very-low-budget American indies with untrained actors and improvised dialogue that has been dubbed mumblecore.

A road-trip movie about a couple of guys nearing the end of life's road, Land Ho! is a sweetly simple tale that underscores what we already know but too often forget: Adventurism and finding your bliss are not just for the young.

As a performance showcase it's intriguing simply because Eenhoorn and Nelson barely belong to the same species, so different are they in demeanor.

Eenhoorn brings an understated wry quality to his performance that nicely counterbalances Nelson's unflagging bonhomie.

"Land Ho!" is an indie oddball of a movie that wanders about with two seniors looking to squeeze a bit more out of life. The squeezing is gentle but affirming, just like the film.
