  • A realistic approach to what would probably happen in a post-apocalyptic world. This film leaves you wondering if there is any hope to be had unless you're carrying the fire 😉.
    Director: John Hillcoat
    Stars: Viggo Martensen, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Charlize Theron
    Original Video: The Road (2009)

    Gee, nobody ever reviews this and it's one of my favorites. Nick Cave did the soundtrack.

      I was going to say Nick Cave and Warren Ellis did an amazing job with this soundtrack. It's haunting and beautiful.

    A completely different type of road trip Viggo Mortensen can be found in, and an utterly beautiful film, is Captain Fantastic. Eastern Promises and A History of Violence, two other incredible performances/films of his.

      It's cathartic. When ever I'm down and depressed, I watch this film or listen to the Cormac Macarthy audiobook. No matter how shit my life is, its never as bad as The Road. Cry tears, hug your loved ones, have a beer, it's going to be okay.

    Found the DVD in a charity shop yesterday and just watched the movie last night. It's a wonderfully sad and brilliant movie. Glad to find someone else reacting to it!

    I was depressed in 2009 to read this book from Cormac McCarty. But now i think it is a path to do it better. Only to put your head in the sand brings you to what... At the same time i was at the university, studiying about humanity visiting Buchenwald and Auschwitz. By all depression there is HOPE . Immanuel Kant an old philosoph had four questions. What can I know? What I ought to do? What I may hope for? What is man or humanity? My answer is to care for myself and any sort of beeings.

    If it’s any consolation, even nuclear war wouldn’t leave the world this distraught. I believe it isn’t ever mentioned specifically in the book or the movie but the idea of earthquakes constantly happening years after leads me to believe it was something hitting earth or something natural exploding the crust. Likely asteroids I’d assume. So as you said we may be closer to the end than we realize, I am at least hopeful civilization will survive even if a shadow of itself. Because even if every city in the world was nuked there would be habitable places still, albeit not exactly lush and full of life but not entirely barren. As they said in Jurassic park, life finds a way, same with humanity. We’re a bit too persistent if anything.

    The movie is great but very mundane and dark… I believed it peaked my interest when I was like 18 or 19 I watched even when I was younger the movie fascinated me, I later find out it was a book! 📕
    The cannibals in the basement will always get me. I still remember that scene.

      the book this is based off is even worse. they toned down so much of what happens. you read it and wonder what's the point in living in this nightmare of a world.
