I’ve seen “Road to Perdition” when it came to the movies. Â A couple of years later I bought the DVD and saw it few more times. Â But somehow it happened that I never described on this blog how beautiful this movie is.
It’s a piece of art. Â Nothing more, nothing else. Â It feels like nothing happened by itself in this movie. Â Everything has its reason, and everything has been placed appropriately by the makers of this film. Â The story, the acting, the directing, the sound and visuals – all of these work in harmony with each other. Â And like any other talented piece of art, “Road to Perdition” can be watched over and over and over and again.
I Â particularly enjoy the atmosphere of the 1930s. Â Clothes, hats, cars, buildings – these all worked very well for the film. Â It was also interesting to see how modern faces could be transformed into personalities of the past – Tom Hanks, Daniel Craig, and even Paul Newman, although he is a bit of a veteran.
Overall, a solid 9 out of 10.
