    Beautiful film, strange, delicate... Belgian!
    No grand issue is dealt with, just the portraits of two men.
    The two strengths of this flick are the camera work and the script. This road movie is set in Belgian but the admiration its authors have for the USA go so far that you ofte...( read more)n mistake the Flanders for the Rocky mountains.
    Then the scenario is very very well written. The characters remain till the end rather mysterious. I really liked it.

    Awesome landscape shot. Beautiful cinematography and photography. Sober direction. Strong performances, some slow moments but well I laugh so hard at some scenes. Great movie!

    Sometimes, a belgian road movie with absurd plot summary turns out to be a wonderful black comedy from the world of surreal - see Aaltra. This time, it's just an absurd film which fails to grasp the audience.

What ultimately prevents Eldorado from generating any serious comedic energy is absurdity ... that feels unduly strained and limp. full review
