...That's it?

Rating: 5/10 (13 January 2020)

Though I enjoyed the cinematography, I found myself not enjoying this movie as much as others.
After graduating, Christopher McCandless decides to drop everything and hike to Alaska. A quarter-life crisis? He meets a lot of interesting people along the way but then dies when he eats poison berries. The end.
The voiceovers and shots were good, but I could not relate to the main character. He leaves his loved ones and family behind in pursuit of his own goals. Sounds selfish and short-sighted to me. Oh well, did make an interesting story.
2.5/5. I guess these outdoorsy hiking films don't do that much magic to me.
