The Road

If you watch this movie with high expectations of action, thrills and dark humor, well you would be highly disappointed. This movie is a drama that explains mainly about two things that every person should have in life -
"Hope" and "Perseverance ". The environment is post-apocalyptic, a father and son travel in search of humanity and food with cannibals and bad climate slow them down. The movie tends to be a bit melodramatic and lacks to hit the spot in several ways. The depravity of Humans in Humanity was amazingly portrayed. The desperation of the protagonists, the absence of wildlife, the deserted lands and falling trees reminds me of how the world would look in the years to come. The Road serves as a good wake-up call to make us understand that being human is what will save humanity. The father and son amazingly depicted themselves as the torch-bearers of hope, giving in their fullest and not giving up. Viggo Mortensen as usual kept up to the expectations of amazing acting as a responsible caring Father of a dubious Son.
