No mention of the score? It's so good. I remember trying to figure out the theme on piano right after watching the movie. It's so memorable and effective I needed to know how to play it. The score was composed by Thomas Newman who also did Shawshank Redemption.

The title of the movie is a play on words. There's a literal road to Perdition in the movie, but in Christianity, perdition is another word for Hell. So Tom Hanks is a hitman and there's the hell inference. Wiktionary says 1) hell, 2) eternal damnation, 3) absolute ruin (his family experienced that due to his job).

My dad and I were extras in this movie! I was 18 at the time. They cut our hair and paid us for it and we had to go downtown to get fitted for our clothes that fit that period. It took all day for them to film a couple shots of the boy on his bike riding down the street and some other scenes. I was so cold my feet were freezing and one of the guys driving one of those old cars had heat so he had me sit in the car in between shots. After a while, I went into the bank to warm up. It was my first time as an extra. I used to live about 10 mins away from the town they shot those scenes in so it was amazing to see how well they decorated it for this movie. My mom and Grandma came to the area to take pics of us so I have a whole album of that day. My dad made the final cut in a couple of scenes but I was just a blur. Totally worth it though. Very fun experience and they fed us really good! It's amazing how long it takes a scene to be shot though....very highly detailed. My dad went on to be an extra in 8 films in total and I only did 4. Such a neat experience!

True. We can make the argument that this film is proto John Wick, Tom Hanks is John Wick, and Paul Newman is Viggo with the dumb screwup son as his dumb screwup son. Everything fits, except in this earlier version of the story, John Wick's mission is to save the dog (his son) his dead wife left for him. We can even say this is the same universe with a world of assassins. It's a Mandela Effect thing. haha

I did the same thing you did and looked up the actor for Michael Jr out of curiosity. I had assumed that he didn't make a career out of acting. Turns out he just grew up, so I was completely shocked finding out he was Superman. On top of that he was also the voice actor for Sephiroth in the video game Final Fantasy VII Remake. Imagine my surprise, from assuming he wasn't acting, to realizing he's involved in one of my favorite video games.

7:43 As much as I love the rain scene where Hanks guns down Newman and his entourage, this whole sequence from beginning to end is actually my favourite scene in the movie. The eye signals between the three characters as Mike realises he's being set up to be killed, the shaking of the table revealing the gun hidden under the magazine, and the gradual change on Calvino's face from stoned confusion to murderous rage is all just phenomenal.

Loved this movie, so different from the norm for a lot of the actors. I couldn't get enough of these stories when I was young. This story is a collection of many real life events that took place in the days of Alfonse Copone aka "Scarface". Frank Nitti was Capone's cousin and served as his bodyguard. He took over running the empire when Capone went to prison. Paul Newman's character Rooney is based on John Looney who was a boss in the Irish mob at the time.

Paul Newman’s last live action film role. Also the DoP on this film is Conrad Hall, who was a genius. He also did In Cold Blood, Cool Hand Luke and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (both with Paul Newman and are worth the watch if you haven’t seen), and Sam Mendes’ previous film, American Beauty. This film is his last and is one of the most beautiful ever shot. Conrad Hall won his third Academy Award for Best Cinematography for this film posthumously.

Tom Hanks has even lesser known films under his belt. Two super rolls as a character actor are ...

Both films are a masterpiece, yet mostly unknown.

Such an underrated Tom Hanks film. Out of all his films, nobody talks about it on the regular. I'm a huge Tom Hanks fan and even I didn't know this existed until about 13 or so years ago when I randomly saw it in the $5 bin at Wal-Mart. I picked it up on the strength of Tom alone and I never regretted that purchase. There's a lot of really good shots in this film, but my favorite is the reveal of Jude Law in the reflection at the beach house.

Hands down Tom Hanks’ most overlooked performances. It was also Paul Newman’s swan song, as this was his last onscreen film performance. His last line “I’m glad it’s you” has a double meaning. First, it’s saying that I’d rather be taken out by you than a stranger. Also, this was Paul Newman passing the torch to Tom Hanks.

This has been one of my favorite movies since its release. My Uncle is an extra in it and when we heard he was going to be in a Tom Hanks Ganster flick I kept my ear to the ground and then...bam...a movie called Road to Perdition comes out. Captivated me on my first watch. I adore it and it breaks me now as the theme of fathers and sons in the movie really hits close to home as me and my father are not very close. And of course being from Chicago I grew up on the Chicagoland Ganster stories. We had a pond near my house that was notorious for being a dumping ground for bodies during prohibition. We kids would hear tall tales of them pulling out a body every once in a while lol.

Tyler Hoechlin, who plays young Michael, is currently playing Superman in Superman & Lois. It`s hard to believe it's been 20 years since this movie premiered. Another film based on a comic that also got Oscar consideration is A History of Violence. Try that one next.

It's a great movie up there with the likes of "The untouchables " Paul Newman, Daniel Craig, Jude law, and Tom Hanks such a great cast, bit of a risk for Tom as everyone was used to seeing him playing the Nice guy , you guys should also have a look at "Layer-cake" with Daniel Craig 🇬🇧👍

Don't know if anyone else mentioned it but the cinematographer was Conrad Hall. He was nominated for an Oscar for this film. He passed away before the Oscar ceremony. He was also the cinematographer for Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. He was amazing at lighting.

Highlighting this: Another Tom Hanks interesting & dark role is in another hidden gem, "The Ladykillers" (2004) a dark comedy. Fantastic scene stealing co-stars! I would LOVE to see you react to this!!

Jarhead is another criminally overlooked and underrated Sam Mendes film, well worth checking out.

"I'm glad it's you." Four of the most heartbreaking words in the film. Never would've thought this gangster movie could be so emotional 😢

I love the tommy gun scene as well, but there's another layer to it that perhaps gets missed - Paul Newman's last words were "I'm glad it's you", which carries a double meaning. Firstly, he's glad that it's Michael doing the killing, he knows it'll be quick, but he's also glad that Michael's going to be the one to survive between him and Connor once Rooney is dead. Great film.

I was amazed to find out that this was the film adaptation of a graphic novel. Hanks is great in this.

i love how Michael Jr. goes back to the old couple. It ties everything together; the couple are barren so he's the child that they've always wanted; they're poor so presumably Mike Jr. is bringing the rest of the money for them; nobody would know where he's ended up, but it doesn't matter now that all concerned are dead. Interesting dark departure for Tom Hanks and he did a great job. This was Paul Newman's last role, sadly. I also loved the in the rain when he kills everyone with the Tommy Gun and just the muzzle flash, like a monster in the dark. Fantastic directorial choices! I love your reactions and your synopsis afterward. So astute and also fun! Another Tom Hanks interesting & dark role is in another hidden gem, "The Ladykillers" (2004) a dark comedy. Fantastic scene stealing co-stars! I would LOVE to see you react to this!!

Perdition refers to the loss of salvation--being damned to hell--the 'road' that Michael Sr. and all the gangsters are already on, and he wants to keep his son from going down that same road.

I really liked this movie with one exception: When Michael doesn't finish off Harlen when he was on the floor in no condition to react. Then of course it's Harlen who ends up killing Michael. A true enforcer like Michael would have finished the job when he had the chance, especially knowing how tough this guy was. But still, great movie!
