Aviation Cocktail is pretty much rural drama, tight thriller and PTSD, all rolled into one, and it works rather splendidly thanks to a good narrative buildup that reveals more and more facts only gradually, doesn't try to explain too much away, and ultimately creates a puzzle that looks almost certainly a whole lot different from what you might have expected. And add to that a very solid directorial effort favoring atmosphere over spectacle, a very competent ensemble cast, and of course some wonderfully authentic sets and props (the vintage cars alone will make you want to watch this!), and you've got yourself a pretty good movie!
