The best movie I've ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (28 January 2008)

I agree with all the comments about the kid being stupid, ill-prepared, inconsiderate and a spoiled brat. People who leave their critique at that are correct, but missed a lot of deeper meanings provided in this masterpiece. Sean Penn you are to be commended. I believe you did justice to the book and were honest to the story. The acting was superb. Hirsch, Keener, Holbrook make this movie sing. One person who I don't hear a lot of mention for is Brian Dierker(Rainey). For only being his first acting role, he was very good. Vedder's music and singing were perfect for this film. The cinematography was stunning. I've seen "No Country"... and in my opinion does not even touch "Wild" I have not seen "There will be blood", only trailers. But it seems to win the Oscar for acting you have to be over the top or over act in my opinion like Daniel Day-Lewis's role, almost like a cartoon character. The actors in "wild" did not over-act, but brought real feelings thru about real people. It is truly a shame that "Wild" did not get more nominations, as it definitely got snubbed.
