Awesome movie! Really really liked it. I think I'm going to try and find the novel...
End and story spoiler
Spoiler:
The ending felt a bit sugar sweet in my opinion... But still acceptable. Everything else in the movie was awesome.
Though I'm left wondering what the catastrophe was... Doubt it was a nuclear holocaust since the radiation would be to strong. I'm betting it was some kind of very strong solar flare that triggered a load of other catastrophes (nuclear plants exploding for instance)?
Though could that smoke up the sky 24/7 like that? I like that it didn't give an answer to what had happened but at the same time I'm just dying to know. xD
Spoiler:
The ending is somewhat dubious, you can't be sure about the family intent, it may very well be that they only want to keep him live until when they decide to eat him...

Yes it did seem a bit odd " oh we have been following you until your father was out of the way, now he is gone we are happy as we can have you"
Sherlock Holmes 8/10 , nice little adventure flick , good acting and combination of Law and Downey , don't know about Rachel McAdams tho , her character felt a little forced.
The Road 8.5/9=ish since the screener is not complete and the missing footage could add 'something' to it since the pacing somewhere in the middle felt rushed.
Boring and depressing, i actually thought of suicide. I think i should stay away from all those Screeners for the awards. One disapointment after another.
Hurt Locker - 5/10
The main hero can't act FOR SHIT! The black guy was better...
Liked the m82a1 barrett in the movie, apart from that pretty standard :/

life aint a box of chocolates man
Life ain't what you see in that movie man
in the right conditions it could be
all it takes in one calimity to send us back 1000 years or so
i don't know why people are so optimistic for no reason

i think the point is that we love fantasizing about destruction... our books, movies, games always go all out to the extreme to paint the most disheartening picture our minds can come up with.
real life, however, is rarely THAT extreme... and unlike in stories where ONE person controls the environment, and they try to make it as bleak as possible... in real life there are many people that would commit themselves entirely to saving us, and when it comes down to it, the entire world doesnt just turn evil at the drop of a hat.
i think thats what kennys kinda getting at. if not, then whoops.

@Chiv - i thought Renner was so color- and emotionless... Apathic and bland as hell.
I read that this movie is epic like Private Ryan or Band Of Brothers but, being really polite, it sucks...
Still that's a few hours less waiting for Book Of Eli and The Road to hit the cinemas (in Poland).
Would have given it a straight 10 if it werent so predictible. Felt like just about every move in the genre, but with a stunning setting and awesome CGI.

in the book, it is more evident that the people that found him were good. Because it talks about how he grows up talking to his dad every day like he promised. plus, the guy didn't take his gun.

was quite enjoyable, but jesus fucking christ, why was the animation so painfully cheap and shitty looking? its a good thing the story and voice work was so good that it made up for it.
