    Movie is gritty, dark, but also has a amazing story about the relationship between a father and his son in this post apocalyptic world. Amazing book, faithful adaptation! My dad and I love this movie

  • Worst movie ever!

    I still remember the first time seeing this. It was slow, uneventful, non-climatic and a snoozer for sure. Acting is ok, but the story leads no where. I’d skip it if you can

    Have a book or iPad handy when you pop this movie in.

  • One of the best films I’ve ever seen.

    The Last of Us was inspired by this. Enough said. The book is one of McCarthy’s best.

  • Charlize just a cameo

    Charlize Theron was in the movie just about a total of five minutes…, more like a cameo. Great acting. But slow movie. And sad.

    I love this film as much as the brilliant and intense novel. I can’t believe it’s actually on iTunes for sale!
