The Road

Starring:  Viggo Mortensen, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Charlize Theron
Sci Fi/Fantasy, 2009 (Rated R)

A man and his son travel on foot in a decimated post apocalyptic world hoping to find hope and some semblance of civilization 
  • This movie was just sad.  As I watched this man and his son trudge onward in a world where people have committed suicide rather then live in it I find myself wondering what is the point.  What kind of life is that to live in fear, hunger, and constant survival mode?  This man is driven to keep going when it seems most logical to just give up.
  • Great acting by Mortenson and the boy Smit-McPhee.  There were scenes where watching this little boy cry was almost heart breaking. 
  • Great movie all around.
5 STARS
