The Road

I watched The Road earlier on blueray.
It was so beautifully done and the actors were phenomenal.
The mise en scene was spectacular; the use of location and the props and settings really conveyed how disastrous the world had become.
This film is an adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's novel, "The Road" and the novel questions humanity and makes the audience think about what they would do if they were in the same situation.
The film really brought the novel to life.
Viggo Mortensen and Kodi Smit-McPhee really played their characters of The Man and Boy amazingly and i honestly believe no one else could have done a better job.
Lots of long shots were used in order to take in the scenery, so the audience could take in how much the world had changed due to apocalyptic events.
Close ups of the actors' face were used to their emotions through facial expressions.
The costumes for the characters fitted with the whole mise en scene as they were wearing old, raggedy clothes that were over sized and dirty.
The make up too was realistic and well done; the over grown, dirty hair and dirty hands and faces, to show the man and the boy living in extreme conditions.

This is truly a beautiful film and worth a watch.
Just have ice cream and chocolate with you as it WILL depress you...
sadly, it failed to make me cry.
Maybe i am emotionally dead/heartless.
one day i shall see a film and it WILL make me cry!!
