it's canadian, it's a road movie, and a dead body is involved
15 November 2003
canada has produced a number of great road movies, and yes, some of them also involved dead bodies. on their knees is like this, but its not that great. but there are some moments in the movie that work well. there are a couple of well executed camera movements, and super 8 footage and the actress playing mo did a good job.

at the same time, however, the movie felt really long, it dragged on in the third act, and clocks in well under 90 minutes. and there are some really bad camera shots in it as well, the exposure doesn't match.

overall, its very hit and miss, and its on a minute by minute basis. its certainly canadian, we have been around for a while making unique qwerky little films. in the very least, on their knees can be filed there.
