The Road movie review

http://screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/the-road-still-5.jpg
In The RoadViggo Mortenson plays as a father who tries to survive this horrible post-apocalyptic wasteland with his son, whom all he has left.This movie is based on Cormac McCarthy's Pulitzer prize-winning book   



In the future of The Road, the world is a horrible,dark and savage place.People betray other people, kill, murder and even eat others to survive. Definelty not my kind of post-apocalyptic world. The story is unclear in how the world came to end and what actully happend, but that helps made this story a very dark tale.

John Hillcoat (director) definelty did a good job in making this story very dark. You know it works when you watch a movie and you kinda feel the uncomfortability and psychological pain that the characters are feeling.
Well this movie definelty did that, with the help of Viggo, who played as dad. Charlize Theron also gave a good performance, but she didn't play a big role in this movie.


If you like dark, emotional, desolate, grim , father and son story. Then this movie is one that you won't forget


7.5/10
