The Road

Yesterday went with a few mates to go and see the new movie 'The Road' in the Cornerhouse in Notts. I hadn't heard much about the film prior to seeing it, so I wasn't sure what to expect really. All I knew was a few bits of the general plot and that it had Aragorn from LOTR in it.

And I would rate it so highly, it's one of the best films i've ever seen, it's definitely up there with the greats. It explored how disasters and war affect the individual instead of nations and showed what a father will do for a child. I don't want to give anything away, but the film got to us all and made everyone think and in my opinion THAT is what can make a movie great.

The combinations throughout the movie could bring anyone to tears at points and although it's probably not great to admit it, but I was actually close to tears at one point it was that powerful, and I've never even thought about crying at a film before. And yes, it wasn't just me either (that's right i'm dragging everyone down with me lol), pretty much everyone said they felt like they could have cried at it, that's how amazing it was.

I recommend it highly, brilliant all roundness really :)
