Watched: The Road (2009)


Spoiler alert!
Based on the apocalyptic novel by Cormac McCarthy this movie tugs hard at the father & son strings and even the husband to wife strings. I cannot for the life of me remember how the apocalypse occurred, it just seemed to have happened?!?! I enjoy this genre of movie, however I did think that it was going to be more like 28 days later with more horror. Do not expect horror out of this movie. Viggo Mortensen is the main actor with his son on screen, it is a shame that Charlize Theron did not make much of an appearance before her on screen disappearance. A well known aussie actor makes a very brief appearance and I will leave it up to you to identify him shall you choose to see this film.

I hope the other guys have seen this and can comment - if not I'm sure they have seen something probably more interesting than this!
