‘What We Find on the Road’: They Don’t Find Much

‘Cruisin’ and playin‘ the radio, with no particular place to go.’ Actually, this good-looking road-buddy movie goes to California, but it’s drama-lite.

“What We Find on the Road” kicks off with the 18th birthday of one TJ (Finn Haney). A tough-looking customer arrives at TJ’s door, bearing gifts—the keys to a beat-up ’68 Dodge Polara convertible that TJ later finds waiting for him in the back lot of a nearby auto-body shop.
