Cruiser

About This Movie

Cruiser (2015) drags you into the slow, almost hypnotic pulse of a night shift at a gas station in Athens. It's not flashy, but that’s part of its charm. Vlassis, the attendant, and Stephanos, the truck driver, share their lives, revealing dreams and regrets in a way that feels both intimate and raw. The pacing is deliberate, mirroring the quiet despair and fleeting connections that often come with solitude. The performances are understated but resonate deeply, drawing you into their world. It's the kind of film that captures a slice of life, with an atmosphere that hangs in the air like the smoke from a cigarette. Not about big plot twists, but about those small, profound moments that linger.
