A violent artist, Thomas (Garrett Hedlund) has an ominous encounter in the desert with a homicidal, chameleon-like drifter, Jack (Oscar Isaac). Jack follows Thomas back to his privileged L.A. home life, holding a dark secret over his head as he attempts to infiltrate and destroy his seemingly-perfect life. Thomas must come to terms with his own insecurities and self-doubt to protect himself and his family, and go head-to-head with his nemesis in a riveting two-man clash that plays out in exciting and unexpected ways.

A pretty good premise for an interesting film, but since you expect at least a little bit of suspense from a thriller, the film missed the mark. It's not exciting, you just wait to see what comes from it. Well, nothing much. A relatively boring spectacle with interesting actors and untapped potential.

Mojave is an average thriller starring Oscar Isaac, an unfortunate choice for the killer. With his blond mane, Garrett Hedlund may appeal to the female audience, but he does not arouse much sympathy as the main character in danger. The conflict between the hero and the villain and the chemistry between them should drive the film, but it’s all rather dull and not thought through. Poor work with the characters.
