| 06.22.13 | Netflix | From my dusty pile of Netflix discs... I guess I realize now that the power of the book comes from the prose more than the story. Maybe it's because I had read the book and therefore knew where the road would take the boy and his dad, but I found this to be mostly boring as shit. I liked both The Proposition and Lawless so I was hoping to be taken by this as well but nah... One seen with Viggo and the crying boy kind of got to me but it was like the easiest scene to get to anyone ever. Other than that, a lot of gray, occasional less-than-a-minute glimpses of good actors, and a whole lotta nothing. |
