Pickle

About This Movie

So, there's this film called Pickle from 2017 that’s a strange mix of comedy and drama, and honestly, it’s quite a ride. The premise is kind of darkly humorous—Oscar accidentally freezes his dog, and then he’s got to drive the ashes across the country to make amends with his stepson. You know, it plays with those emotional undercurrents in a way that’s both awkward and genuine. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it adds to that quirky, offbeat vibe. The performances are solid, especially how they handle the absurdity of the situation. Practical effects? Well, there aren't many, but the sincerity in dealing with loss is what makes it stand out, even if it’s a bit rough around the edges.
