Light of My Life

This movie is very much like 'The Road' and 'Children Of Men' smooshed together, just not as good. It's hard for me to get through anything with Casey 'MarbleMouth' Affleck, but I gave it a shot anyway as I love post-apocalyptic movies. He should give mumble rap a try. Anyway, the movie has been done before so I wasn't expecting much and that's what I got. Another slow burner, just a little below average fare.

This film was beautifully shot, written and directed. It was subtle, yet powerful in its content and the cast was superb. This film is for thinkers and survivors, and really tugs at your heart strings. Casey Affleck did an amazing job as writer/director, and as the father trying to keep his daughter safe. I highly recommend this movie!

Its basic virtue and sin is to remind The Road . The good part - performances of Anna Pniowsky and Casey Affleck. The bad part - slowly development of story, nice, off course but so predictable and too, too familiar. A beautiful film, off course but without an original voice.

People who call this movie boring should go back to their Transformers movies. It's not boring for a single second. The story has a quiet intensity, the acting is out of this world, and Affleck's direction is so good that I can't wait for his next directing job. Haters gonna hate, but they are so wrong it's actually funny.

Strong acting overshadowed by a workaday, commonly modern and misguided 21st century gender and political issues study. Predictable and blatently unspecial.
