A documentary in which George relates their stories with great charm and understanding.
75
Unique and fascinating.
70
Rambles into unexpected places, some more interesting than others, but it stays on track long enough to take auds somewhere special.
70
The scruffy, outspoken train-hoppers in Sarah George's exhilarating documentary, Catching Out, are a sure sign that the pioneer spirit still flickers in pockets of TV-wired America.
60
Perhaps the only person more enthralled by the romance of train hopping than the latter-day hobos profiled in this great looking documentary from first-time director Sarah George is George herself.
40
Ultimately everything feels one-sided and sanitized.
30
Ultimately, the film is as numbingly boring as, well, a lengthy train ride during which there's nothing to do but look out the window.
