    The Road

    Watched this last night, very impressive and one film which does seem to live up to all the hype.

    The best post apocalyptic type film for quite sometime imo, and excellent acting between Viggo and his in-flim son, portraying his struggles to raise his child in such a crazy barbaric new world. I have not read the book, and some that have are not to enamoured with this (as is often the case) but i think it is well worth a watch would give it a 9/10.

    It's a pretty faithful adaptation - not much happens in the book either. I enjoyed it, if enjoy is the right word, but I didn;t find it gripped me the way the book did.

    Thought it was a fantastic film, very grim. Wouldn't watch again, but massively enjoyed it.
