I don't understand what people liked about Cormac McCarthy's End of the Road. Some good father/son moments, I guess, but overall I've never seen a more bleak and depressing film. Perhaps the book was better? (I didn't know it was a book first until after I'd seen the film).

Did you see or read it?

Did you like it?

Why?

I read the book before I saw the film. It wasn’t a fun read but it blew me away.

How so? Writing style, theme? What's the draw?

It’s been years, but I vividly remember feeling the intensity of their situation. The hopelessness and the perseverance.

I appreciate your responses, thank you.
