Completely unsympathetic and overdone

Rating: 1/10 (4 May 2019)

Did not like one character in this movie. Reading the other reviews, I'm glad I'm not the only person who couldn't stand the main character. He talked about hypocrites and he was the biggest one of all. Did not like the sister's narration. It attempted to make the two of them sympathetic characters but it didn't work. It just sounded like a spoiled kid making excuses and trying to claim they had this horrible childhood when they didn't. Any casting of Kristen Stewart is a mistake. She has no acting ability. She's always monotone and expressionless. The soundtrack also attempted to make the movie meaningful but made it overdone and sappy. The best part was the main character getting beat up by the self appointed border patrol guy. I may keep in mind the weight loss tips as evidenced by the many scenes of his belt tightening or making new holes in the leather - walk a lot and live on water and plants. I also feel that McCandless's death was suicide by starvation in an attempt to martyr himself.
