A Wonderful, Passionate Movie!!!

Rating: Null/10 (19 February 2012)

To me, Revolutionary Road is a movie that reflects upon the difficulties some couples face in their relationships with each other. In this film, even though at times the Wheelers expressed hatred to one another, I do not think that their love for each other disappeared; I think that it just got camouflaged in the many problems that the couple faced. This is evident in one of the fight scenes which leads to April running out into the woods, but Frank runs after her, showing that even though he said nasty words to her, he still loved her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have cared where April was or where she was running off to.
Many of the scenes in this movie were emotional and sad to watch. The ending of Revolutionary Road was one such scene. One of the most powerful scene in this movie was seeing Frank running away from the hospital when April tragically passed away after trying to abort the child she was carrying for more than 12 weeks. Frank's running at that point symbolizes how much April meant to his life, and how her death was so emotionally traumatizing to him.
As usual, Leornado DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, are both incredible actors, and through their passionate acting, they bring to life the difficulties that the Wheelers face in their 1950s life. Both Leornado DiCaprio and Kate Winslet become so emotional at times through their acting, that myself as a member of the audience can almost feel the difficulties that they are having in their lives and in their relationship together. I believe that Sam Mendes really chose the ideal actors to play in this film, and not too many actors can act in the incredible way that Leornado and Kate performed in.
Overall, I rated this movie a 9/10 because it was so real, so passionate, and an amazing movie!!!
