Sacramento movie storyline. Flighty and unpredictable Ricky (Michael Angarano) is kicked out of his convalescent home following the death of his father and surprises his best friend, Glenn (Michael Cera), by forcing him on a road trip across California. Unbeknownst to him, Glenn is about to start a family with his wife Rosie (Kristen Stewart) and is sick of Ricky’s inability to grow out of their past shenanigans. In the worn yellow seats of Glenn’s old college car, the two men reckon with the mistakes of their past and the questions lurking in their future.
Explosively hilarious dynamics grounded by impeccably-delivered performances from an all-star cast (Maya Erskine also appears as a key figure in Ricky’s life), Sacramento is a sweet and heartwarming jaunt through the most important relationships in our lives, and asks the question of how to move forward with ourselves, in spite of ourselves.––Cara Cusumano
