Synopsis

Viggo Mortensen stars in this murky adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. In a post-apocalyptic, barren and browned United States, a man (Mortensen) and his son (Kodi Smit-McPhee) must survive on the road by any means necessary. When not searching for shelter and food, they're evading gangs of hungry savages. "One little genre step away from being an outright zombie movie" (Variety). The Road does not best the Coen brothers' 2007 adaptation of McCarthy, No Country for Old Men, but John Hillcoat's offering is an intense survival story with excellent production design, photography (Javier Aguirresarobe), and performances by Charlize Theron, Robert Duvall, Guy Pearce and Molly Parker.
