I liked it alot also. I was annoyed by the kid saying Papa though. That was my only problem.

Oh god I wanted to slit my wrists after watching it, a very dark and bleak movie. It was well made but It wasn't anything special, Viggo was superb as usual though.

Heavier then most. Good example of a film not needing to stimulate through laughs and expensive visuals. The power of the story stirs a type of emotion or reaction that is not as easy or as comfortable as the Wood likes to typically serve these days.

The book does the same thing. You never learn their names throughout. Yeah that was a good one.

good to hear ,

i thought the postman could have been good but they seem to turn a decent sounding script into a snoozer.


I will watch the road based on this thread
