3/4
"In his tough-minded commitment to both his characters and to their lower-middle-class milieu, the filmmaker recasts his potentially disastrous material into something that feels emotionally honest, if not exactly revelatory."  Slant Magazine  Andrew Schenker

2/5
"when Monaghan's 10-year-old son (Jimmy Bennett) shows up, the air blows out of the movie faster than a blown tire on an 18-wheeler"  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

C+
"The only thing to take away from this bumpy ride is the smooth performance by Monaghan."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

B+
"The overall story serves as a metaphor for American life, where too many people spend a lot of time keeping busy without ever really enjoying the moment and without ever being truly alive."  Laramie Movie Scope  Robert Roten

7/10
"Half road trip and half learning how to make a home, Trucker gives Michelle Monaghan a chance to show what she can do and the result is encouraging, although twelve year old Jimmy Bennett nearly steals the show."  Monsters and Critics  Ron Wilkinson
