I totally understand why this movie wasn't received well by critics. You have to be in the mood to appreciate it in a memorable way. This is a laconic and grim road story, with two characters standing out among others in a fictional Australian outback. A story about men's cruelty to men, a tale of survival, hate, desperation, and dedication.
Some might call it weird, but the plot develops in a strangely straightforward manner, as dry and dusty as the setting. This, along with the terrific acting of Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson, makes this movie so aesthetically cinematic. You might think you'd never see Robert Pattinson performing such a theatrically rich role as he did in The Rover.
What happens in the end took my breath away, I won't reveal it to avoid spoiling your experience.
