The Road

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0898367/






Review and Critics:

I like normally apocalyptic movies, this was good but not perfect and
precise, in so many ways. yes first thing the boy must should be so
brave, after all he is born and grown in such a harsh environment. and
its natural thing as well. the boy makes the movie so pathetic. people
don't like such sympathies in such movies. Except child should be so
innocent cute or a girl! i am wondering if it was a good idea that if
it were a girl instead of the boy. the movie would be more emotional!

The boy must had helped his Papa without asking, it'd a good idea that
the boy look around to find something, a big stone or rod to give Papa
to open the Hole, Bomb Shelter where they found food. and also he
should help his Papa to drag the cart by himself. But He was not
dragging or helping even when his Papa was Sick and Injured, and also
Papa were saying him to do.

The Old man who told his name Ely, was pointless, without benefit. May
be the writer introduced this character just a s person to communicate
once. But it would be better idea if this old man helped them in
another scene to make this character useful.

It was very sad to see when one woman and girl (daughter) were chased
and killed. it would be good idea if old man (Ely) was switched with
that woman and girl. (this papa and son communicated this woman and
girl) while old man was chased and killed!

Also they don't show in the movie what happened actually to cause this
world like this. and they don't show any dates between this time and
that time when he was with his wife. (like they showed in I Am Legend)

In this Apocalypse there was no any shortage of fresh water Unlike Book
of Eli. But shortage of food unlike I am Legend. It became impossible
to eat meat in this movie except cannibalism. and also plants and trees
were dying. if this was the case then logically there was no reason to
survive. because you are going to die not later but sooner due to
shortage of food. and you cannot find the all expired packed food all
the way. Or you have to become cannibal. or at least scavenger, who eats
a corpses. !!

Also they showed that they helped an old man, but in other scene they
left a black man without clothes in cold, when he was not harmful! !?

Also Man's wife (charise theron) leaved simply... i don't know if it is psychologically possible that a wife and a mother leaves/kill herself so simply. while contradictly in the almost end scene when Man kills a old man who shot him with arrow. That old man was with his old wife. also we see such scene in Book of Eli where a old couple is surviving by helping eachother. so how Wife is leaving her husband and specially a not-much-grown-son so simple while it was also not much danger at that time!
