Such an underrated actor, this performance should of at least had a nomination at the oscars

This movie deserves to be a cult classic, it really deserves it.

One of the best movies I've ever seen.

This movie is basically about my worst fear and it was so well made that while i was watching it for the first time i had forgotten i was seeing a movie. This is probably the most realistic post apocalypse movie i have ever seen.

Viggo was amazing in The Road. In fact, he's amazing in pretty much everything he does. Probably my favourite actor.

movie is amazing, book is just haunting on all levels.

To be human in all circumstances; to carry the fire, to take the terrible risk of trusting another human being. A heartbreakingly beautiful film: Mortensen, Theron, Duval, the boy they are all amazing.

Watched this movie alone last night.. Couldn't sleep after it. That horrific feeling you get from an WW2 movies, It's exactly that x100. So sad and I'm happy the ending didn't end I thought it would.. Still, very sad. And realistic on so many ways!

One does not simply walk down a road in a post apocalypic world

He should have at least 4 Oscars. Viggo is nothing short of brilliant

I don't even know how to find the words to express how sad this movie was. It was also fantastic and Vigo Mortensen's acting was a definite 10/10.

The most emotionally impacting part of this film to me is a tie between when he puts the gun to his son's head in the bathroom, and the son asks' Will I ever see you again?', or the part where he breaks down at the sight of the piano. The piano scene is the only moment where he is allowed to feel sorry for himself, instead of his son, giving their relationship yet more meaning and power.

I cried so much at the end. This man and the kid went along to well with this movie. The acting was phenomenal

I will give this movie as a present to my brother-in-law. It's about being a father.

A new take on the post apaocalyptic theme. Taking you in deep thoughts every moment. This movie will leave you speechless and with your feet firmly on the ground. The acting was superb from both Viggo and Kodi. If you havent read the book before watching this, well this is one of the rare occasions where although completly lyal to the book, actually axceeds in many ways...Without given too much away, this is a must see movie, You will not see anything like it for a long time...10/10

If you were moved by the book or the movie, you should read the article "Carry the fire" by Brett McKay on the website art of manliness. He puts the book's and movie's message in perspective with what it means to be a father. Tragically beautifull.

Certainly is a movie that will last. Concept aside, that scene with the people in the basement is not only horrific, but it also makes you angry. So there's a juxtaposition between helping the kid, the captives, and then forced to teach the kid to commit suicide. McCarthy should probably wright his next book about puppies. Ease up there you depressed genius...

(SPOILER ALERT) I shed man tears. Not when his wife gives up and walks away to her death. Not when the father coughs blood and you realize he has cancer and is going to die. Not when he dies. But when that kind family adopts the boy, and that they had a real live dog. First time I ever welled up to a movie. Ever.

This is an immense, unforgettable, unsurpassable filmatic accomplishment. It shattered me.

This movie was beautifully shot...

Playing Fallout 3 means so much more now! lol. Can't play that game without thinking of this movie and it gets me into it so much more... Also great movie! Loved it

amazing!! Such a good actor

Just now watched and it got my heart❤❤❤

oh this film looks great!! i am now going to get the book and read it before i see the film so i dnt have any insight into the story!! looks like a very emotional story!! viggo is a brilliant actor!! and very sweet!

Stellar performance Viggo.

Your absolutely right, I saw the trailer AFTER I saw the movie, and the trailer is misleading, the movie is much better than the trailer makes it out to be.

This movie was so moving, Truly one you MUST see.

Viggo should get an Oscar for this. Incredible.

love his voice!

great movie, Viggo is right when he says its one of those few pieces of art that can change people, such a unique movie experience

This movie was nothing less than great. I loved this movie.

Great job Viggo! A wonderful movie - in my top 5 all-time favs!

Is it just me, or does it sound like they're talking into a fan?

LOTR is a movie to see again and again, this movie is a one time watch movie.

I watched about a third of this film on tv last night, and that third was brilliant. I love post-apocalyptic films cause it shows how humans change when a terrible event happens, and they are all awesome films. Viggo is easily on of my favourite actors, and I'm pretty sure there's a line used in this film similar to one in lord of the rings, it had the same meaning but I can't remember what it was

I saw this movie yesterday, damn it was much better than expected, i was really worried it was gonna be one of those stupid The Day After Tommorow movie - but it wasn't at all! It was so full of emotions, and Viggo did and amazing job! And the kid, his name is Cody or something (in real life that is) is an amazing actor! I love how everything is so anonomys, i mean you don't really know to much, but you just hope it will go well for Viggo and his son, man it was depressing but amazing, original!

Excellent book and excellent Movie. Bravo.

Oh goodness. Viggo's acting was really good in the movie. It made me tear up a few times.

want to watch this...aware that kodi's starring as well...he acted brilliantly in 'rumulus, my father' but i hope its not another 2012 or those kind of movies...i think they've exhausted our screens

Viggo should work as peacemaker.He's such a smart and wise man.I love his way of speaking.very calming.

Yeah wonderful actor, I thought he was british for a long time But he's from the good ol U.S of A With love from New Zealand

Superb performance by Viggo, doing what he does best. The role of "outcast" who conveys empathy and humanity in an inhumane world, which is definately a true reflection of this Insane World in which we live!!!!!

for the first time, they make a movie that honors a book. just like No Country For Old Men

@ContinuousContinuing Yeah wonderful actor, I thought he was british for a long time But he's from the good ol U.S of A With love from New Zealand

saw it tonight- amazing film

There are just some people who are naturally gifted at acting and he is definitely one of them. This movie was flawless from start to finish . I am definitely going to make a pass on thye book someday.

I had trouble breathing whilst watching this film. An exceptionally well-performed piece of Art. With a capital 'a'.

Best actor ever.

@izzythedude if the movie was so shocking you should read the Book NOW!! i truly recomend to you to read the book

yeah!!he is very good looking smart and sweet!!!

0:07 the police walking into a burning city is film footage from the L.A. riots and it was also used in the 2004 remake of Dawn of the dead in the opening credits showing the society falling apart

@Mofterei on the strength of your words,i will definitely rent it.

Holy shit why does he look like so damn good for 51 he looks atleast 40.. can anyone else tell me or even agree!??

incredible book. I'm saving mine as a "how to" when the shit hits the fan

"one of these movies people will see over and over again." Ummm. No thanks. Sitting through that once is enough...

just go see it!

why did they put "10 years from now", when the disaster is not supposed to be specified?

Do hope (against hope) that man would wakeup and change his path. i think before that awakening the height of our ambitions will kill us all.

thank you

Viggo's awesome

Well, he was far from a perfect father. You may be right but I guess it depends on one's point of view. On one hand he did everything he could to protect his son, on the other he was at times overly strict, plus was cold to others that he encountered. There are lots of family and father-son models in the real world and many of them far from perfect. The father's good intentions is for me what's most important.

Because he is handsome.

i just rented this movie and realized two things: 1.) no where did i see how the world ended.... it just wasnt there, like, it never said why earth was dead. 2.) i wanted to slit my wirsts after it was over good movie, horrible side effects lol

I'm gonna tell this right now..IF VIGGO Mortensen doesn't play Vincent Van Gogh SOON i am going to pull my hair out..Have u seen him with short hair and a beard..this guy looks Just like him..Give me a thumbs up if u agree youtube pals =)) -Winter

Vigo is a bit of a legend.

@CollectiveUniversity i guess you know ''the proposition'' (2005)?

amazing film

looks good

Great movie, better book! Viggo and Cormac are both brilliant.

Have you actually read the book?

The real theme in this movie is in the background, the way the earth is dying....

If he could pull off a Texas accent he could play Joel

@Myrthmor the kid was wretched? come on man thats a bit much. I thought he was pretty moving sometimes. The book was better but thats the case 90% of the time anyways...

i dunno why you just can see he's danish (;

Can't remember this explosion 6:05 :D WTF

Fuck he's cool

@ContinuousContinuing wheres that chicken

@Noizedrive how is it for the first time then

@aragornsbride This has pretty much convinced me to watch it :D !

@Dead8Bird Every one keeps telling me that! I have been looking for a good read:)

@Micrsiro more than cool!!!! He's friggin HOT!!!!

@ilovepanslabyrinth He danish

have u seen the moon ???

If Viggo doesnt get a oscar nom im gonna shit a chicken.

what do y'all think happened that caused the apocalypse? i think it was a meteor.

hes hot!!!!

I barely believe that he's 51, He looks in his late 30s.

LMAO ;-))))))))))))))))))

Just finished this book..........still processing just how much I hated it. Sorry to all you bleeding heart book of the month fans.

test

This movie is extremely depressing.

this film had many contradictions and flaws and has a shit ending. But the performances were excellent in places. This also confirms my personal nightmare of what will happen when IT happens. miserable as fuck.
