Argh! Terrible movie

Rating: 1/10 (12 June 2008)

No words can describe the intense joy I experienced when this movie finally finished! Consider yourself warned if you go and see this film based on a quick look at the average note on IMDb! If you are less in a hurry though, take a good look at the actors involved for instance. Apart from the ridiculous thought of this McCandless kid being some kind of übermensch in real life, experienced enough to tell an old man the way he should interpret life, one could wonder since when this soap-star pretty-boy kid "Emile Hirsch" is a credible actor suited for roles playing an A-class student reading Tolstoj, with a philosophy on society of his own and who's even master at playing the bloody piano? This movie is full of endless Hollywood clichés, endless unnecessary implausible scenes, endless terrible music, and endless poor acting. Shame on you Sean Penn, shame on you!!!
