“I may not know much about documentaries, but I know good storytelling when I see it, and “Bastards’ Road” is an emotional masterpiece. The story comes together by centering on Jon’s physical trip and visits with his fellow Marines while constantly weaving in the rest of the pieces—Jon’s background in the military, his struggles with PTSD and suicide that led him to take the trip, information about veterans’ mental health struggles, and interviews with professionals and other 2/4 Marines and gold star families. The film is informative but highly personal, making statistics and concepts real by sharing the stories of individuals who are actually experiencing those realities. And while the entire film is 98 minutes of raw emotion, it also manages to balance that emotion, breaking up intense moments by interspersing breaks of gorgeous cinematography from Jon’s trip and comedic relief from Jon’s own charismatic personality.”
