'The Road' movie review by Crosswalk.com

Crosswalk recommends this 'R' rated movie:
"The movie version of McCarthy's The Road, a story of a father and son trying to survive after an apocalyptic event, paints a picture of humanity that shouldn't be surprising to those who embrace biblical teachings: Depravity is everywhere, but in the midst of it, a young boy is able to distinguish right from wrong and to see the good amidst outwardly bleak circumstances. Although God is discussed, he is never embraced, yet The Road shows the importance of the power of hope to overcome bitterness and cynicism."

"The Road is a reminder of just how comfortable and protected our lives are, and how easily humans can revert to suspicion and distrust of their fellow man when deprived of the things they take for granted. Yet it also reminds us that people are made in the image of God (Gen. 1: 26-27), and that truth should guide our actions even in the most desperate of circumstances."
