The Road - 8 stars out of 10
I love dark, post-Apocalyptic movies. The Road is unique as the plot explores the idea of cannibalism in this atmosphere while focusing on the characters making an epic journey to a promised land. The artistry of the color scheme creates visual beauty with its grays and blacks, only allowing for bright colors in the few flashbacks, to create a dim world without hope. Viggo is amazing but the best performance comes from Robert Duvall as he again proves his mastery of the silver screen. It moves slow most of the time but delivers as an emotional and visual journey into the extinction of the human race.
