Yes, it was a fantastic movie. I highly recommend it. If you like post-apocalyptic movies you would love this movie.

I like Denzel, he's one of my favorite actors but this movie looks a bit iffy IMO.

you got Denzel who is the man, Mila Kunis who is mad hot, and a post apocolyptic action story with awsome fight scenes and special effects. Whats not to like? Give me this over movies like fucking ironman anyday.

Gary Oldman is the intriguing part of this movie for me. I stopped caring about Denzel a long time ago. Dude has played the same role in practically every movie he's done for years now

I like most of his movies, but he just plays the same character like Seth Rogen, Will Ferrell (he's mixed it up with Stranger Than Fiction), & Michael Cera.

Ya, I am not the only one who thinks Denzel is too smiliar in different movies.
I like sword and sandal/battle/historical epics. Especially ones like Alexander that splice in the gay porn.

The Road was one of the most depressing and dark movies I have ever seen.

I didn't until the end. It was one of those movies that gave you the info, but you just don't think about it until it is revealed. If you rewatch it or think about some of the things that happened it is right in front of you. It just made the movie better imo.

Yeah, once you realize it, the movie is kind of worth a second watch. You notice the times he trips a little different or when and where he stops walking and junk. I have mixed feelings about the film. It asks the audience to have too much faith in the god showing Eli the 'righteous' path (in more ways than one) without really letting on to it at all. There are parts that make his blindness seriously questionable too and I don't mean the street shoot out either. Most people who have seen it don't realize he was blind still, they think he just knows how to read braille or has read the bible enough time to have it memorized. It kind of fails on multiple levels when I think about it. Not a bad flick though.

Yeah alot of the stuff he does is impossible for a blind person to do. Kind of makes it too far fetched in some ways unless you think God is controlling his every move, which is not the case. It is more like God is just sending him in the right way, but the other stuff is done by his hearing and then the shootouts are redicluous.
