Pure Action Movies The Road a review
Based on Cormac McCarthy novel the movie is a simple story of survival told through a father and his son as they struggle through and apocalyptic wasteland where everything is slowing dying. We are not told what has happened but its clear that the world is in trouble. The father played by Viggo Mortenson struggles to survive with his son in tow all the while questioning himself should he live or just give up even to the point of showing his son how to end it.
The movie relies on the interaction between father and son and the threat of starvation and gangs of other survivors who have reverted to cannibalism. THe movie is not an action adventure move and shouldnt be viewed as such, its basically the struggle for survival and a father love for his son and his struggle for his own humanity.
Good movie and nice performances from the leads.
