Verso il sole

We just viewed this on Netflix.... the plot is credible and interesting. The acting is very good. But we couldn't help but get distracted by a soundtrack that was nothing less that ridiculous. Who in the heck did this?? The backing music was sometimes out of a spaghetti western, then street rap, the gospel and just never really worked with the plot and acting.

Though the plot was interesting and kept us engaged, the ending was most definitely "lackluster" - what a bummer.. It made little sense, it is like they ran out of film and just threw something together for the last 5-mins. Too bad, we liked it until the end, despite the soundtrack.

This is a sad story about a boy who is dying of cancer and how he kidnaps his doctor,for him to bring him to a holy place that he thinks can save his life.

The movie shows how the boy is not willing to give up hope about finding the holy mountain where he can rest his sole. You can't help not feeling sorry for the 16year old boy,and especially when you hear about what he has been through.

Woody Harrelson plays one of his best roles ever as the doctor who starts to believe in the boy and are willing to sacrifice everything to help him. The young boy is played by Jon Seda who does an amazing job.

This is a great story that teaches you not to give up hope and fight for what you believe in.

See the movie and find out what I mean.

It's not the greatest movie, but it's entertaining. So many people hating on here, just relax and enjoy a movie, stop being so critical of everything, especially all you wanna be Hollywood critic's! Just shut up!

i think this film is really emotional to watch because it shows hurt, pain, hope and excitement all in one film. Jon Seda who plays blue gives an excellent performance in this film and i reckon deserves an Oscar!. i believe this film should be an example of the desperation of some people in the world, who go to any lengths to save their lives or what they believe in. Woody Harrelson also gives what i reckon is one of his best ever performances. he seems to be able to use his character as a doctor to his full advantage, and yet show an understanding side to blue. I really would recommend anybody to watch this film, because it is such an eye opener.

If you are being told that you don't have a chance ... wouldn't you try to hold onto something that tells you there is a chance? Even if that may sound crazy to others - I mean really far out. Something that sort of happens here. And you have Woody Harrelson being the one playing it straight ... which is almost funny ... at least to a degree considering how out there he can be too. This road movie has a lot of tension, a lot of relationship and a lot of wisdom in a sense. Like what to do with life, how precious life is and how little we think about certain things that we take for granted. On the other hand, it has also scenes with a waitress that should be getting a lot of ... tips/attention - especially from male customers (surely some female or "other" too, I just hope I don't have to write that all the time but becomes a given). That scene is supposed to show flaws in our main character, though gets kind of swept to the side when a couple of minutes later there is an incident, that paints a different picture - though still abuse or offensive at least. The movie has not just good intentions but also a message if you will. About human will - no pun intended. While that is something that most can relate I reckon, the pacing and some bumps along the road may not bode well for viewers overall. Decent effort and worth a look for sure - especially if you are open to spiritual thinking (with a side dish of cynicism)
